  1. Generally speaking most CCR software runs on Windows only. Some radios, but not this one, can be programmed with CHIRP, which will run on a Mac. Ultimately, you can run Windows on a Mac in emulation to program your radio; I run Windows XP and Windows 10 in Parallels, on my Mac.

    Kg935

    Is it possible that you are concurrently pushing a button on the front of your WOUXUN KG-935G, while pushing the push-to-talk button?
  3. Or much more FREE, historically speaking: (no license fee... YET!) ?
  4. The point of the FCC's Enforcement Authority is not policing whether or not the operator of a transmitter is validly licensed. The point is to warn against using radio transmissions during the commission of a crime: This Notice is clearly a product of the January 6 Insurrection at The Capitol, and now their subsequent prosecution for crimes up to, and including, seditious conspiracy
  5. Check out my Anytone AT-779UV also sold as the Radioddity DB20-G: For about $99, 18 watts output for High Power GMRS channels and easily opened to transmit on Ham Tech 2 meters and 70cms.
  6. While I was out at an appointment, looks like you got some great responses!
  7. What is the 2nd tone? Where are you located in respect to this repeater?
  8. Anythings possible with the failure of hardware, but I think unlikely. What are the details of the repeater you are hearing? name, freq, tone, etc.
  9. Getting an answer to your problem is included in your membership fee; wanting to know "how it works" will cost you extra! ? Few facts, broad descriptions of your happening, so let me try to restate what I think you are asking, so that I can better answer your question: You have your Wouxun KG-935G set to monitor (receive) an Amateur Radio Ham repeater in the 70 cm band with a tone set for receive (Tone A). You could consistently hear this repeater for one week. Suddenly, last weekend, you could no longer hear the Ham repeater, so you changed your receive tone to a different tone (Tone B ) and now you can hear this repeater again. You asked a friend to monitor this 70 cm repeater frequency with Tone A and they report that they can hear this Ham repeater. Possible reasons for this result (I am assuming there is no hardware problem with your 935): 1) The administrators of this repeater changed their tone to receive their repeater to Tone B; and then afterwards added back Tone A as well. 2) There are two Ham repeaters on this 70 cm frequency and your friend can only hear the one that uses Tone A and coincidentally when you listen, only the Tone B repeater is transmitting. In any event, just eliminate any tone frequency to receive, which will allow you to receive any and all transmissions within your range on that frequency (repeater output and/or simplex) and report back your results.
  10. Did you tell us which model you are using?
  11. Delete the tone for receiving unless there are two repeaters using the same output frequency within your reception zone, there is no need for you to use a receiving tone.
  12. And I guess Laura Ingraham was taking NyQuill, too! ? Abbott and Costello would be SO proud! "What's the name of the 1st baseman?" "2 meters!" ?
  13. The morse Code should have included the following: Dit Dah Dah, Dit Dah Dit, Dit Dah, Dit Dit Dit Dah, Dah Dah Dah Dit Dit, Dah Dah Dah Dah Dah, Dit Dit Dah Dah Dah WRAV802 Sometimes I use the Audio Recording HD app on my iPhone to record it because it contains a 50%-X feature to slow it down by half so that I can decode it more easily.
  14. When @marcspazlaughs, that is all the recognition I need! After you hit quote, you typed in the wrong place, but it's ok: everyone knows I would not add THAT TEXT in my own quote! ? I guess you still do not understand my calling you "Mice" instead of "Mike" where I made the SAME spelling error on your name!
  15. Which is why I recommend to new users that they do not program any receive tone into their radio, until or unless they are receiving interference on that frequency.
  16. Unless you are receiving other stations on the same frequency, one solution is to just do not put a receive tone into your radio.
  17. @marcspazgot the joke!
  18. It makes up for it with 50 watts out on Channels 8-14!!! ?
  19. I thought you had some good anecdotal points to consider, until your BS postscript exposed your bias. Just saying
  20. His name is spelled M-a-r-C, not “K” ?
  21. You’re welcome Mice ?
  22. We don’t care if the bad guys care… Knowledge, or imputed knowledge, of the crime (illegal use of the radio) is used to add charges to the indictment and even more time to the sentencing
  23. Many of us Mac afficionados use Windows either natively, in the BootCamp enviornment, or in emulation; Parallels in my case; or on my MacBook Pro, I have both installed.
  24. Good point @gortex2! Actually some repeaters in Ham radio, at least here in Southern California are closed, for various reasons, and many closed repeaters arose because of the unwanted interference/jamming problems of the 80s and 90s that affected 2 meters (before it was cleaned up by the sanction of the so-called First Amendment repeater on 147.435).
