tk880 v1 programing

[kd4nfs]

i have a tk880 ver.1. im trying to program it using kpg49d and a usb cable. im trying to program in gmrs freqs from several states, some frs frqs. also. im using windows 7. i have wrote the code plug, if thats what you guys call it here. and have uploaded it to the radio. everything seems to work fine, except one thing so far. and i know that im missing a check box someplace, but i cant find it....

 

i have 3 groups right now, GMRS FL, GMRS GA. and FRS. i can change the groups on the radio but the channel name doesnt show up. it shows the group name, but when i press the channel up or down but, if i remember its c or d button. nothing changes. ive did a search but cant find anything on my question.

suggestions. thanks for the help in advance.

It shows the group name? On my TK-880 (v2.0, though) the panel always shows channel name. Also, you can reprogram channel up/down buttons, so make sure that your C and D, or whatever you expect to scroll through channels, are programmed to do so.

Edit:

I just looked at the Menu -> Edit -> Optional Features -> Optional Features 1

Mine are programmed like this:
Group Name Text Length: None
Sub LCD display: Group number
Display Character: Channel Name
