It's extremely doubtful CBSA confiscate it but Canada may be a sovereign nation they can do whatever they want. You are asking the wrong people call CBSA to get your info from the horse's mouth. Even then take the info with a grain of salt. I'll give a personal example I was born in Canada but have lived in the state for 99% of my life. Back in 1990, I lost my wallet, license, SS card, and credit cards the works.. Getting a new driver's license was a piece of cake, replacing credit and debit cards was relatively easy. A replacement SS card not so much.. I went to the local SS office and the lady took my info and said I'd receive a replacement card in a week or two. I waited and waited but no card.. I called them up and was informed I was not an American citizen. I had to make a dozen or so phone calls until someone could tell me what to do. Which was contact the American Consulate in Toronto which had the original document filed by the State Department stating I was an American citizen born aboard.. So I had to make a dozen more phone calls navigating Canadian bureaucrats. Finally, I was able to get the document I needed. I went to the local SS office and applied for an SS card. The lady said we don't accept the document you have as proof of American citizenship.. Luckily I read the SS form carefully and at the bottom of the SS card application form it stated the form I had from the state department was a valid proof of citizenship and was valid to use to get a replacement SS card. I showed this to the SS lady and her response was, "Oh I didn't know that I had never seen one of those before", and with the press of a key on the keyboard, I was an American citizen again. After two months of fighting bureaucratic idiots. The moral of this story is when you are dealing with the government any government you are dealing with idiots so use extra caution..

I'm in southwest Alabama, AKA Mobile County. The widest coverage repeater around is the Spanish Fort 700 machine, which covers from the Mississippi to the Florida state lines, or about 50 miles. The elevation of the repeater is only about 600 ft AMSL but when every thing else is basically at sea level 600 ft above does the job quite nicely.

Here is where I go for solar updates and space intell in general Space WX Woman

Try this, go into the menu for the channel you have set for the repeater in question. Check and see if menu number 10 is off, 11 is off, 12 is off and 13 is 100. If that doesn't work, turn menu number 11 to 100 and try again.

I did solve the problem using the keyboard, it seems Chirp set menu item 10 (R-DSC) to D423 instead of off. Once I found that issue and set R-DSC off everything works the way it should. I don't know if setting T-DSC to 423 NN in Chirp causes R-DSC to be set to 423 and is a bug in the program or what, but after two days of taring my hair out everything is now working correctly.

I am trying to program a local repeater in Mobile, AL, namely the Mobile AL WRUU567 repeater into a UV9G using Chirp.. With no success. I can key up the repeater but cannot hear it. I cannot hear it when others are talking on it. But, I hear it perfectly well on my scanner, but not on the UV9G. The repeater has a 423 DPL Input Tone and a 141.3 Hz Output Tone. I have the following perimeters set up in Chirp Frequency Name Tone Mode Tone Squelch DTCS DTCS Polarity Cross Mode Duplex Offset Mode Power 462.675 MOB675 Cross 141.3 423 NN DTCS->Tone + 5.000 FM High Is something set wrong? If so how do I fix it? It's an open repeater.

And the GMRS model BAOFENG UV-9G GMRS Radio Waterproof IP67 is shock resistant and waterproof for $40

Is there a way to lock these two buttons in the on position? Every time I use the map I have to manually switch these to features on, it's not a big problem but still an annoyance..

Here's an article which outline the step-by-step instruction to program a repeater into your radio. Programming in a repeater To find a repeater, use the home page on this site. At the top of that page you'll see a label "Map". Click it, then click the bubble nearest your location. When the bubble splits, click the one closest to your location. Repeat this process until a small antenna tower appears. Click on it, a box will appear giving you the information about the repeater. If you see a repeater in your area, click on the gear in the upper left of the map and ensure show stale repeaters is turned on.. You need the frequency and the input tone, enter that information into your radio as per the instructions outlined by the link.. Save the configured frequency to a channel. Out of the box, UV5Rs will not transmit on GMRS channels..

I have several, and they are good little radios for the money they are great radios. My oldest a BF-F8HP is maybe ten years old and keeps on ticking. I like'm so much I bought a UV5R just the other day....

Thank you, that is exactly the info I needed.

Yep, had it bounce on the floor, roll under the couch. Anyone know what size and pitch it is, I'll just get a couple and keep one in the door and another in the cable otherwise that screw isn't going to last 24 hours... What a hooky set up..
