TD-H3 GMRS and Repeaters

[W3sG4c]

New guy here and learning what I can.  In my readings it sounded like making a new channel for repeaters is best; ie. Channel 31.   Do I need to input the offset/direction or is it auto/hardcoded in the H3GMRS radio?  thanks.

Might want to consult the manual.  It has info you need to know.   Then you may want to consult the interweb.  It also has info you need to know.    If your programming in a computer this will alll be 10000000xs easier and make more sense to you.    You will always need a plus5 off set for gmrs repeaters and usually tones.

If you have a type accepted GMRS radio the offset should be baked in for you. A number of diy repeater channels should be also.
