Should work but those HTs are ham not GMRS.

I have a table of interoperability from NOFIG of the DCS codes, and which normal means an invert (i.e. 023N = 047I). It is in excel format. It also has CTCSS tone to P25 NAC for what it's worth. One heck of an OST (operator selectable tone) list.
Link?

Guess my OCD took me down the rabbit hole
LOL! I could have given a better explanation as well.
GMRS is a "channelized" service. As such the frequencies it's allowed to transmit on are hard coded into channels. When in Memory(channel) mode, you are locked down to transmitting on only the approved frequencies and are therefore allowed to transmit. In VFO mode, you have virtually infinite frequency adjustment in the band as Steve indicated. That is why you can only listen in with VFO mode but you can transmit in Memory mode.

It is a GMRS radio so you can't use the VFO to transmit. It will only transmit on the GMRS specific frequencies.

Those rolled eyes look strangely familiar but I don't recognize the hair.

Keep in mind that the ultimate goal is to keep the lightening outside of the living space. And while you are doing that, don't introduce any ground loops.

@AdmiralCochrane which old Kenwood HT do you have? I have the TH-75A but I think it only does CTCSS.

I have the 778UV
I have never had a problem using CHIRP with my 778UV. Used the OEM software to set the frequency range and then just CHIRP ever since.

I'm familiar with that phenomenon.

If you go ht to mag mount for a vehicle make sure to get the proper sma to nmo or pl259 type connector adapters.
Some antennas come with that adapter which is nice. The Nagoya UT72/UT72G are such antennas. It's actually an adapter cable. The cable is very flexible and reduces the strain on the SMA on the radio.

The only one I can download now is the "Reference" copy. Can't get the "Official" copy. Not sure what the difference is but yeah, when I download the reference copy it does not have the Line A/Line C restriction.

I've been using a UT-72 with an AT778-UV for more than an year now and have not had any problems. I almost always get good reports. When I don't get a good report, there is usually an obvious reason like weather, distance, trees, buildings, etc. This is a very inexpensive setup and I'm quite pleased with it.
