Hi- yes, the Tx & Rx tones are different. They sent them to me when I joined the club. I will try again with tone mode. But where do I enter the two different PL tones in chirp?
I might be too far away as I'm about 40 miles from the repeater (which states a 100 mile range btw). Hopefully not.
Thanks again for your help!
I'm about 30 miles from the repeater, so that may be an issue. I did speak to someone, and they gave me the setup steps that I outlined above. Your club sounds great, btw. Too bad I'm on the east coast!
To hear via simplex, do I just enter the frequency?
Thanks,
Gabe
Hi,
I am new to GMRS and am trying to connect UV-5G Plus with repeaters in the Tri-state area. I joined a repeater club to access a large repeater in my area, and I am trying to program everything via Chirp. Below is what I have entered:
Frequency
I set the tone mode to "cross," tone-tone, with the PL tones entered in the "Tone" and "Tone Squelch" columns.
+5 offset
FM
power = high.
These are three linked repeaters.
I am not getting any sound or contacts back when I transmit. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
Gabe
