did you get this program? if not let me know. i also use this for my TK-880-1 v2.0

So I have a small antenna that is for a mobile vehicle antenna. I am not getting out to any repeater. I believe it is my power supply is not putting out enough power while transmitting I do believe my power supply is on its last leg. Looking at replacing. I’m approximately 40 miles from the repeater. I’m trying to hit however I can hit it on my handheld just not my homebase station and I do believe that is because of the power supply. I will be upgrading soon.

its all good. i thank you for your help. i can hit the repeater with my handheld system. if the power converter draws down on power and the fan sound like to looses momentum would that cause a problem. i am pulling at strings at this point to get it to work. if i cant get it i may just get a new base station.

@WRUU653 as far as I know yes i can transmit on 467.725 simplex here is a pick of the radio information.

Good Evening, I am trying to program my base station to hit a repeater in my area. attached is photos of the channel information and the optional features. i can hear all day but I cannot key up and talk. I can on simplex to my private channel I use for family but not any repeaters. I am running my base station with a Kenwood ps-430.

ok thank you for the replies. I will work stick to the standard repeater freqs.

Good afternoon, So, I have a question, but I am not sure if it can be done or if its legal. I would like to set up a repeater in my area for my family use only. am I stuck to the standard GMRS repeater freqs and offsets or can i customize the offsets to what i would like them to be? for example, instead of a +5 offset to a + or - 7 or 8. not sure if this is legal. Any help or opinions on this would be appreciated.

He everyone, I am wanting to use my Kenwood TK-880-1 as a base station in my house but not sure what a good power converter is to look for or use. Any pointers will help. I was looking at one by BTech but will a cheaper one work the same?

Thank you all for the help after alot of confusion and going half bald, it was the program and i have a working program and was able to program the radio. Now i just have to get a power converter and a antenna for the house and i will have a base unit and a mobile. thank you guys, for all the help

to be honest i am not sure it was one that was given to me but the guy that gave it to me used it to program it to AZ repeaters

@WRXR255 I could not get it to work with chirp. @nokones it was a download. is it possible i messed something up with the download?

this is a screenshot i have of the issue if it helps

it says it will not run due to incompatibility with 64-bit version of windows

Good afternoon, I am trying to program a radio that was given to me by a coworker and i can not get the software to work on windows 11. if any one has ideas i would love to hear them. i have the whole unit, mic, antenna, and program cable. i am using KPG-49D for a Kenwood TK-880 and it will not load the program on my windows 11 laptop. thank you in advance, WSDX985
