Would anyone happen to have a codeplug for GMRS channels already set up for an Icom F221 mobile rig? You'd save me a LOT of typing....
Thanks...

New (used) radio arrived today. Icom F221 UHF mobile from used-radios.com. Like my VHF F121 it's built like a tank. I was able to use my same programming cable and software and have all the GMRS channels set in. For some reason I can't get it to not sound the power-on beep. My F121 starts up nice and quiet but I can't remember how I set it. I've compared both codeplugs and darned if I can see a difference in the settings... Otherwise, another mobile rig added to my inventory.

Problem solved. Found the answer after a ton of searches: Take out the Power-On Text Message. It eliminated the power-on beep. Dang... I had my callsign in the power-on message. Now I gotta put a label on the radio so I remember my call.... !
