Retevis RT22 can not receive transmission from Midland GTS 3000 on any channel. Midland can receive the RT22 transmissions fine .

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.

You most likely have a CTCSS tone or DTCSS code set on receive on the Midland that differs from the RT22 transmit.

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.

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.

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.

Here’s a video that describes programming the rt22:

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?

I found what I needed,  Thanks again.

Could also be Wide Band vs Narrow Band. (You should use Narrow).

The guy in the video made a mistake.  He confused the 467Mhz channels with the 462Mhz channels with the same frequency past the decimal.  As long as the radio is used on the 467Mhz frequencies the 2 watt output is legal.  It might not even be capable of accessing those frequencies.

That wouldn't prevent one from hearing the other over simplex within range.
