    Although the situation you describe certainly does happen, verify your testing method. Often times voice is getting through the repeater but the person's test method is faulty and they think they aren't getting through. The most common problem in this is the transmit radio and the receive radio being too close together creating desence on the receive radio essentially causing it to "go deaf" to the repeater.

    @WRQC527 I've seen some pretty big car fires but that one takes the cake. Surely that picture is from a movie right? right?

    It flew directly over me today and I was going to try to get through the pileup but I got busy forgot.

    Make sure the FRS radio doesn't have a tone set on the RX

    Well, for some of us, the price is laughable.

    Because they only made one.

    Yep, I couldn't get in last night but obviously I can this morning.

    You might start by checking power level and bandwidth. Also, don't expect too much from a ghost antenna.

    The radio eats them.

    @WSFM396 welcome to GMRS.

    @nokones nice job. Always good to document things like this.

    I've tried G4Fon but I couldn't get the Farnsworth timing to work.

    My UV-5R8W works on MURS. Who said that?!

    Looks exactly like the Baofeng MP31. Apparently the same thing just different service. I have enjoyed my MP31s. They have better sound quality that my UV-5Rs. Not as much power but enough for what I use them for.

    THAT!!! ^^^^

    @WRKY933 good tip. I haven't had that exact problem but I have had a similar problem. When I'm at the park throwing the Frisbee for the dog, I keep the radio on my belt just over my back right pocket. Sometimes as I walk, the volume gets turned down so I can't hear anything. The O-ring should help with that as well. PS I think Harbor Freight is where I got my box of O-rings.

    @SteveShannon does he go over the hardware involved or just the software?
  18. WRXB215
    Isn't that a VHF radio?
  19. WRXB215
    How do you know, you don't have any cheap radios.

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

    Find the repeater channel that coresponds to the repeater frequency. Enter the repeater input tone into your radios TX. You can leave the RX blank for now, it just filters out the signals you don't want to hear.

    Why you had to answer like this is beyond me.
  23. WRXB215
    @prmirage don't let @Socalgmrs talk you into throwing your radio in the trash.
  24. WRXB215
    I have a multi pack of O-rings I bought somewhere and found the right size in that pack.

    @SteveShannon thanks for the clarification. Maybe it was the testing fee. Anyway, good info.
