  1. I was wondering about the columns in chirp. Tone Mode, Cross Mode. I have the frequency, Tx and Rx tones, from the owner who has recently split the tones. The screenshot below is from my config page. Are these setting correct?
  2. I noticed that that Chain O Lakes repeater is no longer linked to any of the Southern repeaters... like Crete600? Anyone know if this will reconnect? Dave WRJR769
  3. A repeater owner gives a frequency and a DCTS tone. Is that frequency the Tx or the Rx. Tx is +5.0 mhz ? .
  4. I also have the Baofeng BF-F8HP and am having difficulty setting up a GMRS repeater. Any guru's want to help out a couple of newbs?
  5. I have a FCC GMRS license. Is there something else. I didn't see anything on the FCC website that states I need anything more than that. Sorry if I'm asking too many questions, this is very new to me.
  6. I searched and did not find any GMRS repeaters with the 462/467 range. I must be doing something wrong? I'm in Northern IL.
  7. Ok, that's news to me... I'm brand new to this game. can I use the radio for FRS/GMRS ? I don't know anything about HAM . obviously, I was not aware that that was a HAM repeater. what frequency range should I be looking for? Illegal radio? is that because of the 8 watt power?
  8. here's the repeater that I'm trying to connect to Is uplink = TX Frequency, downlink=RX Frequency? also my offset is 005.000? Downlink: 442.50000 Uplink: 447.50000 Offset: +5.0 MHz Uplink Tone: 114.8 Downlink Tone: 114.8 County: Lake Grid: EN52WG Call: K9SGR Use: OPEN Op Status: On-Air Sponsor: K9SGR FM: Yes; analog capable.
  9. I have a Baofeng BF-F8HP. I'm currently working through some videos. I have the information that you mentioned above.
  10. Following... I just got a Baofeng BF-F8HP and I'm also trying to connect to the local repeater.
  11. I have a new handheld radio and have GMRS frequencies loaded. I can hear transmissions, but I don't think I'm getting out. I have tested the radio on FRS and Marine channels... works fine. Repeaters? how do I connect to one so I can get more range? Thank you in advance Dave H, WRJR769 Wauconda, IL
