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?
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?

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.
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?
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.
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
