  1. @M5Fan - any luck getting to that repeater? Did any of the ideas and suggestions give you any answers to what you might need to do?
  2. Ahh... bummer.
  3. Just wondering why you are hell bent on finding out the address of the owner of an unlisted repeater that the owner obviously has not listed and probably uses for his own communication needs.
  4. Excellent Typo there. Touch what?
  5. You for sure married the right woman. My wife is kinda intrigued by my funny radio "fad", although she does not really "get it" and probably would never pick a radio up and talk into it... but she laughs at some of the funny conversations on our local repeaters. And she still loves me anyway.
  6. As far as I know... no. Question is, why would you want to remove it? If the repeater owner some day decided to check their requests and answer, then you would finally get what you were asking for. If they don't ever answer, well, nothing has changed one way or another. I understand and agree that it would be nice to clear it so you don't even have to look at it again, and I'm not sure why it isn't an option. But I guess it lets you keep track of repeaters you never have to bother asking permission for eveyr again because it seems no one is answering it anyway.
  7. If you are in an urban area with a lot buildings between you and the repeater (or each trees), or indoors, and the repeater is not up pretty high.. yeah you could have trouble getting that far to it. A better antenna will for sure help, getting it up higher and in a clear area with line of sight will help. as mentioned above you mgiht be able to hide the antenna in an attic space (test it with a temporary setup first) ... and it would be good as mentioned above if you go physically closer to the repeater to a better location and just confirm that your radio is setup correctly to access it.
  8. I feel like I am crazy.. and I only have three radios. Thanks for making me feel better about myself.
  9. Good to hear. Wonder if some of those other USB ports were USB2 instead of USB3? 9or if that even matters) but glad to hear you have it working.
  10. Hmm... I thought I had done it without the login once on my H3... but maybe I don't remember it right.
  11. You can just skip the log in to use the app. not necessary. But I agree... I much prefer CHIRP to odmaster.
  12. The same USBc cable can charge the battery (with the USBc port on the bottom of the radio) AND... you can program the radio with CHIRP or other propitiatory program on the computer by plugging into the SIDE USBc port on the RADIO under the rubber cover .. under the Kenwood Port.
  13. Actually... wrong. The USBc cable that comes with the radio can both charge the battery via the plug on the bottom of the battery... and the radio can be connected for programming with the same cable by plugging into the USBc port on the side of the radio under the Kenwood plug ports.
  14. Yeah, I had a GMRS callsign 12 years back which i let expire... and in the past year decided to give it another try. I looked into trying to resurrect my old callsign (although I was not really attached to it) but found it easier to just register for a new one on my existing FRN. not sure how you go about getting your $35 refunded though... hope you can.
  15. Yep. Took me doing it in reverse order and getting it wrong a few times before I figured that out. But it can be useful like you said, when you know how it works.
