[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-5R
I have a problem programming my Baofeng UV-5R. I downloaded the file and then uploaded the code-plug with changes. Afterwards the radio doesn't have the offsets. I can just transmit simplex even though it was programed with an offset for a repeater. Am I missing something? Uploaded it twice now.

Hello Michael
did you set the off set like this clip its from my uv-5r like yours then I save it before I up load it to the radio I don’t think you have to its works on my using Mac and PC hope this helps

In the USA, you want "FM" not "NFM" BTW

Mine are all set to NFM in the USA and no-one complains.

Ok about the NFM and FM I was only pointing out the off set’s I should have cut that part off when I first set up the radio I did set the offset first then the Duplex only to see that the offset I has set was cleared to 0.0000000 could this be what what happened its easy to over look it

yes the offsets are there

Baofengs only use the offset in vfo mode. For computer programming and to manually save a channel, you have to input both the transmit and receive freqs separately.

You have to put the offset and whether you're shifting up + or down -.
As far as I know once you enter those items in the channel memory you should be able to recall those settings on the radio. And you should see it shift. Make sure you're in channel mode and on the correct channel number also.
Good luck.

Hi Michael,
These radios do not store a shift direction or offset as part of a programmed memory channel. They are not needed.
All that is required to access a repeater is to listen on the frequency that the repeater transmits on and to transmit on the frequency that the repeater listens to.
Radio RX Freq <- Repeater TX Freq Radio TX Freq -> Repeater RX Freq
So it is the RX frequency and the TX frequency that is stored in a programmed memory. Because of this, menu 25 (SFT-D) and menu 26 (OFFSET) are only use and only function when the radio is set to VFO (frequency) mode. They do not function when the radio is set to MR (channel) mode. Take a look at the "Reverence for UV-5R Menus".
http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_MenuDef.php
CHIRP on the other hand, lets you enter the information as the RX frequency, shift direction and offset. Once this information has been entered, CHIRP computes the TX frequency so it and the RX frequency can be stored in the corresponding memory.
In the radio, a "+-" will be indicated in the upper status display whenever the RX frequency and TX frequency are not the same (as in a repeater, odd-split, cross-band or TX blocked channel).
To test to make sure everything is programmed as it should, select the memory in a display line that has its Memory Display Format set to FREQ (menu 21 (MDF-A) or menu 22 (MDF-B)). You should see the RX frequency in the selected display line. Now tap the [*] key to put the radio into "reverse" mode (or press the [PTT] button). The TX frequency should now be displayed. Tap the [*] key a second time to exit "reverse" mode (or release the [PTT] button). The RX frequency will be displayed again.

After reading this message I picked the radio up tried the * trick and it showed the input freq. Looks like I may have a problem with the PTT switch, it worked ok then it didn't.
