I am new to this Forum and would appreciate any help from anyone on my Maxon GMRS 210+3 repeater frequency programming. The radio has a total of 10 channels initially set as CH1 462.5625 MHz, CH2 462.5875 MHz, CH3 462.6125 MHz, CH4 462.6375 MHz, CH5 462.6625 MHz, CH6 462.6875 MHz, CH7 462.7125 MHz, CH8 (FCC Assigned Emergency / Safety) 462.675 MHz, CH9 (Repeater) 462.575 MHz, CH10 (Repeater) 462.625 MHz. The radio channel band width is 25 kHz in 12.5 kHz steps.
I need help to program either of my CH9 or CH10 to 462.600 MHz which is my local repeater frequency. I pressed "F" (function) button and "Radio Config" button to enter the programming mode. I then use the "Down" / "UP" button to get to "CC ___.____" option and then use the "Tune/M-CH" button to hopefully select the 462.600 MHz value. Unfortunately, the radio only gave me the closest values of 462.5875 MHz or 462.6125 MHz (a gap in 25 kHz jumping over the 462.600 MHz).
Upon further reading on the programming manual, it states that the frequency 462.600 MHz (along 462.550 MHz, 462.575 MHz, 462.625 MHz, 462.650 MHz, 462.675 MHz, 462.700 MHz, and 462.725 MHz) can be programmed by a radio communications dealer. Since this is an old radio, I am not able to find any help so far and hope that I can find help in this Forum.
Thanks in Advance!
