  1. If you click the maps tab at the top of the page, then type in the town and state in the search bar at the bottom left, it will populate repeaters in that town.
  2. Did you try the map tab at the top of the page?
  3. GM-5RH worked in Chirp for my UV-5G plus. MohawkMike actually found it on Baofens's website.
  4. That worked! Thanks. My mistake was looking for a code with a D in it, instead of just using the number.
  5. Interesting. HRCC Josh said all Baofeng's were analog, and I didn't see an option to input a D tone. How would I program D025 for example?
  6. Thank you, this worked for my UV-5G plus!
  7. Thank you, this video was super helpful. Since this video was using HAM as an example, I used it in combination with this video. One thing to point out, BAOFENG is analog, and won't use digital repeaters. EX: D026
  8. I just got my first radio also, a UV-5G plus, and BEWARE, the repeater programming in the manual is NOT in 6.11 like the table of contents in the owners manual says, it is in 6.4 Have you had any luck? I have programmed repeaters that I have permission for, and am able to hear a lot, but talk little. Not sure why yet. I have been able to communicate with my other UV-5G plus, 4 miles away very clearly, but don't know if that's because I'm hitting the repeater or not, and have not had any successful "Radio checks"
  9. Best, to me would be range, and voice quality. I'm am an electrician by trade, so not real concerned about ease of installation, but nothing tech heavy. Don't want to have to go to school to learn how to program it, just want to talk to my son on the other side of town LOL. Any suggestions for other things I should be considering?
  10. I'm new to GRMS, and have a UV5G+ handheld that am looking to get more range from when at home. What would be the best option for antenna, coax, etc, mounted to my roof or siding, to go long ranges (10-15 miles)? I live in a suburb of Chicago where there are a lot of houses and trees, but it is relatively flat with an elevation of 700' . Thanks!
