Ahhh! Thank you so much! It finally clicked in my head, or was that the repeater sound? With your and others help I can hit two different repeaters in my area this morning! I guess I was over complicating things instead using the available frequencies! Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it. One more tool in the tool belt now.
And I really enjoy Notarubicon’s videos as well, I know he doesn’t poke fun at newbies and that’s what I like about him, he wants people to be able to enjoy the hobby.

Thank you very much, this map really helped me this morning in seeing it like that, I didn’t realize there was a map view.

Oh my… please don’t answer that last reply, I just realized in the back of the manual the repeater channels are all designated already. I was thinking that the repeaters use unique frequencies.

Wide Band for most Repeaters for sure
 

You get it from the repeater owner. Go to the repeater page of whatever repeater you are interested in using (you can find them on the map page of MYGMRS) and request access. 

The repeater section of this website. Also the map.
Unless there is a lot of noise on your RX frequency , leave the tone off.

Okay, first, just use the preprogrammed repeater channel for 462.675. Just change the tone. 
Second, clear out the receive tone. If a receive tone is incorrect you will never hear the repeater. If you leave it blank you hear everything on the channel. 
Good luck!

Some radios will scan for the tone coming from the repeater and Notarubicon ( @OffRoaderX ) has a couple videos about that, but there’s no guarantee that the input tone and output tone are the same.
Anyway, until you need it, leave it blank for the receive side.
