RETEVIS RB75 GMRS Radio can't change Narrow to Wide Bandwidth

[N7AS]

I have a RETEVIS RB75 GMRS Radio. In the CPS, I can't change the Bandwidth from Narrow to Wide.

Should I be concerned or not.

If you are using repeaters change it to wide. If your not dont worry as 90% of the other folks will most likely be narrow.

They work out of the box with other 75's. I haven't hooked either of mine up to a computer, but the manual doesn't even indicate repeater functions or settings. I did some googling for you though, and it seems it may be possible to use RA685 software to get that column available for you. Take that as you will, and at your own risk. Maybe check if CHIRP has support as well, I wouldn't hold your breath though.

According to their website, CHIRP does support the RB75

CHIRP does supporrt the RB75, but got an error reading from and writing to radio.

Has anyone made the RB75 work with either CHIRP or their software?  So far I am drawing a blank - getting the "No response from radio".

This is almost certainly a Windows/comport/driver issue - do you have any other radios that work using CHIRP?
