WRTJ860

i wont go near chirp ever again, thats why i got rid of my UV8HP and went to a KG935G. Chirp crashed my PC and couldn't get ALOT of stuff back. @OffRoaderXcan you help with Wouxun and these few issues, im sure can be taken care of with firmware updates? more space to type the city name add a channel between a channel (channel management comp to chirp)

would like to be able to add a new channel between two existing channels as to add to or form part of a group when programing.

1. While in Scan Group Say Scan A - Group2 i have 20 Channels, I'd like to just be able to manually go through those channels without going into other channels in my list. 2. would like to be able to add a new channel between two existing channels as to add to or form part of a group. 3. While in Single Band at the bottom of the screen where it says KG-935G id like the ability to add the time and date there.

Iam quite new to GMRS, but i feel I'm learning and slowly getting out there. When I was doing the YouTube thing while looking for a radio I found, OffRoaderX "NotaRubicon" I was watching him do a review on a Baofeng UV9R, I believe, and he made some suggestions to them about upgrades to the radio for their following run of radios, and they took his advice. My Question is do you think Wouxun would be just as open suggestion as Baofeng was?

Thanks, kidphc. I'm actually waiting for a Zello repeater to come online in my area (York) maybe I'll have some luck

Hey all. just was blessed with a gift of an upgrade to an Wouxun KG935G, which has made the process a lot simpler. Just want to say thanks to all those who have granted me the use of their repeaters. I do have a question, i know of people (Groups) on the Ham side of things that get together every night and just BS and i was curious if there was anything like that here on the GMRS side of things?

thanks for the reply. i think we have just about everything ready on this end, now i don't know that much about it other than my radio will talk to a chip (in a raspberry) then be able to talk over the internet. From what im told there is some information you have to fill out then you get four numbers. i used the contact link on the home page and asked pretty much the same question, but with no response. so im kinda in limbo until someone points me in the direction so i can get the next step underway.

Hey all. can anyone give me the direction for starting a Node? I have a sister that lives out in Arizonia, and she has a neighbor that is going to help her on her end. Thanks, Ron

Made first contact yesterday with these two Kool guys, i kind of interrupted their conversation (when there was a pause) i tried to be as polite as i could I'm very new to all this, but Mike and Tim were a hoot especially Mike, I'm sure if regulations were somewhat lax that conversation could've gotten a lil crazy. It was quick but fun i just wanted to thank them again and hope the rest of my contacts go the same.

Frist i want to say Happy 4th of July weekend to everyone. Iam new to GMRS (WRTJ860) i always used FRS with my hunting buddies and on vacation trips with mor than one vehicle. I have always been a hiker and solo camper, i recently had to give that up for 2 years because of a bad knee, which just recently just had surgery on the doctor told me to give it week or so until i went back to normal walking activities. Well, a few days later they were call for some good thunderstorms and i just had an itch i had to scratch, i dug out my pack some gear a trap, my stepfather lent me a solar powered power bank for my phone and headlight, because i wasn't sure if i was going to stay the night or night or not and i was off. i stayed local somewhere that and easy trail, i even brought trekking poles and i was hiking, i had to find a spot pretty quick because the storms weren't that far away, got the tarp set up, gathered what dry wood i could find, hunkered down made some Raman and coffee and enjoyed the storms and the rain that followed. So, i kind of dozed of till 10pm and got my ass chewed up by mosquitos so i decided to get the hell out of there. i grabbed my headlight and started to tear down and head out, well i slipped on the wet leaves and landed square on my newly fixed knee. I was down, could not get up, oh sorry i did forget to mention that Wednesday of the next week i was to go to the Wound Center at Osteo to have an Offloading cast and Boot put on my right foot because of a nasty wound on the bottom of my right foot that was going to add an additional 2 to 3 months of no hiking, hence the scratching of itch. So, i crawled bac under the trap grabbed my phone to call for help, it was dead, ok no worries, plugged it into the power bank, it didn't work!!!! Guess I'm spending the night on the cold damp ground, nothing to coverup with, no damn dry wood, i did have my Trangia and fuel i could warm my hands parodically. So, about I'm guessing about midnight i switch my headlight to SOS cause I'm still getting chewed up and now I'm getting really cold. i never go anywhere without my Glock 21 so before it gets too late, i know there are houses close (ish) i fire 3 shots into a close by stump hope someone would hear. NOPE. 11am my family members called someone to come look for me since i didn't call and say i was staying the night. The doctor still doesn't know about the trip or the fall. So, that is the story behind me getting my GRMS license now for the member info part. I'm not really asking for the information for myself in a sense I'm asking if anyone on here knows "boli3569 WRCU351" My reason for asking is that i put a request in to be accepted to use his Repeater since most of my hiking is within the range of that/his Repeater the most. I think i saw it has been months since the last time he has been on here and would like to ask a favor if anyone that knew him could give hm a shout and tell him about my request or he is more than welcome to get InTouch with me, if need be. I would super appreciate the help. Thanks, Ron

im trying to finish my profile but can't get past the Ham call sign part. I don't have a Ham call sign????

?

Hey there everyone, just wanted to stop in and say hey. Like the Title says I'm new to GMRS. Just got my license and a handheld and live near the linglestown (351) repeater. My call sign is WRTJ860 if any in the area wants to chat, my radio is usually on I'm still trying to figure this all out, especially reprograming of the radio to my liking which is an older Baofeng 82HP to learn on. i will take any and all advice and look forward to meeting and talking to whomever i meet, Ron
