WSIP539 Posted 11 hours ago Report Posted 11 hours ago I have two Retevis RT22 FRS radios. I recently bought 2 Midland GXT 3000. I can receive and transmit between the FRS radios fine as well as the GMRS radio but can only receive from the RT22. I see that it receives a signal from the Midland but can not hear any transmission. Quote

WSIP539 Posted 10 hours ago Author Report Posted 10 hours ago How do I find out the tone set on a RT22? To my knowledge there is no way to get that. The owner manual does not have anything on codes. Quote

The owner manual does not have anything on codes. I googled the manual. They’re called QT and DQT on page 05 of the manual. QT will be the tones. DQT will be the codes. I would provide more information if I had one in my hand to try the different buttons and see what does what, but I guess you will have to do that. Quote
BoxCar Posted 9 hours ago Report Posted 9 hours ago The Retevis CPS will display the default tones shipped on the radio. I don't remember how you disable the tone or if it was even possible on those radios. Quote

WSIP539 Posted 8 hours ago Author Report Posted 8 hours ago Thanks for all the assistance. I now need to get a cable to program. Is the cable a standard that I can just order from Amazon? Quote
