You're exactly right. I wasn't aware that I needed to be in VFO mode, or I overlooked it or something. Boy, do I feel dumb. Anyway, I got it programmed correctly now. Thank you for your help!

I've been programming directly on the radio itself, using the Channel Wizard feature, which is supposed to be easy. Actually, it is, it's just weird that it changes all the frequencies and I can't figure out why. Using CHIRP and a programming cable is probably going to be my next route. Arguably, it's probably the best route, I was just hoping to be able to do it right on the radio itself. Otherwise, yeah, it's a great radio and I'm really enjoying it. I programmed in my local repeaters yesterday and went up into the hills to try it out. They were pinning the meter, but I couldn't hear anything. Figured I'd screwed up the tones. Nope. Then I saw that the frequencies were all wrong. How did I screw that up? Turns out, I didn't.

Yes, I have read the manual, but I am having an issue programming custom channels with the Channel Wizard. When I create a new repeater channel, it changes the frequency of all previously created channels to the same as the new channel. I am saving to a blank channel as well, not overwriting previous channels. Tones and other settings for previously created channels are unchanged though, it's just he frequency that gets changed. I have tried factory reset, too. And, yes, I have reached out to the reseller (Buytwowayradios), just wondering if anyone has any insights as well. Thanks in advance all.
