0 n4gix Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 How far away is the receiving radio? You are probably de-sensing the receiver's front end... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 wrfi506 Posted November 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Receive radio is in the same shack.No problems receiving when using same rx/tx freqs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 wrfi506 Posted November 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Xmtr is TK-862HG-g Receive varies from TK-862G, TK-3207, Baofeng UV-82, Anytone 778UV.Receive radio doesn't seem to matter.No one hears me when the 862HG uses the repeater. Codes are correct. Xmit is 467.650 receive is 462.650.Can use the walkies, or the other mobiles in car 100 feet away. No receive.Seems the 862HG isn't xmit to the repeater.Works great in TA mode.

0 JohnE Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 have you established that you can make the repeater w/another radiohave you listened to the 467 side w/another radioand have you check the rx side w/another radio.If that was all done couple of things come to mind recheck programing, bad antenna.also check the TX power. if using DPL make sure its not inverted(programing).

0 wrfi506 Posted November 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Yes, I xmit on the repeater with all other radiosNo I haven't listened to the 467 side with another radio (good suggestion, got that one on the local tech net last night but haven't had the opportunity to try)Receive the Rx side on all other radiosAntenna tests good with other radiosI use the same file from the 862g to write to the 862HG. Programming is constant. Will re-post tomorrow after listening from 467.650. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 gman1971 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Well, just to put it out there, the UV-82 and most low tier Anytones will desense really bad when other radios are TXing nearby. Xmtr is TK-862HG-g Receive varies from TK-862G, TK-3207, Baofeng UV-82, Anytone 778UV.Receive radio doesn't seem to matter.No one hears me when the 862HG uses the repeater. Codes are correct. Xmit is 467.650 receive is 462.650.Can use the walkies, or the other mobiles in car 100 feet away. No receive.Seems the 862HG isn't xmit to the repeater.Works great in TA mode.

Question

So I can not get my TK-862HG-1 to do split freqs (ie repeater functions)
Works great on GMRS @ same TX/RX but when I program for repeaters, I can't hear myself on the other proper repeater receiving radios.
It has been suggested that I may need a firmware upgrade.
Any pointers to the most current firmware for these radios?
