That worked! I got the morse code repeater identifier when I transmitted. Thank you! So what is the difference between Ch 28 and Ch 31? Ch31 is where I had the repeater programmed and couldn't get through to it. I've attached a .csv file of my radio for you to look at if you'd like. Thank you for the help!!!!

I might be able to help. What kind of radio do you have. How are you programming it? Baofeng UV-9G
1. Can you hear the repeater when others use it? No I haven't been able to hear anyone on the repeater
2. Are you using a tone for receive? 141.3 Hz is listed for the TX and RX. I'm using the Hopkins, SC repeater found on this site.
3. What happens that frustrates you? I've watched every video that I can find on GMRS. Notarubicon has been awesome for learning, but I know I'm missing something and I know its something that when I figure it out it'll be one of those moments where you kick yourself.

I searched a little bit on the forum and didn't find the answers I was looking for. Apologies if I missed it.
I am new to GMRS and haven't used any kind of radio since I was in the military. That being said my interest was peaked with GMRS and wanting to setup comms for my family. I'm getting my butt kicked trying to learn as much as I can and was wondering if anyone knew of a good class or online lessons for GMRS. I've tried connecting to local open repeaters using CHIRP for programming and I'm starting to get frustrated because I'm obviously doing something wrong. I'm sure that knowing nothing about GMRS there's a steep learning curve, but I want to do it right. I'd greatly appreciate any assistance.

I suppose my next step is learning my of the acronyms and what they do/mean. Deep diving into Chirp and all the settings of this radio.
