Am I entering repeaters right in Chirp?

[Mrcippy]

New to GMRS in general and trying to hit two local repeaters (although -- one of which I believe is currently off). I'm entering them in Chirp and syncing it to a UV-9G. Does this look right to you?

I mean.... it should work as long as the UV-9G supports split tones (I don't know if it does), but its more complicated than it needs to be.

 

A more simple solution (more likely to work) would be to set the tone mode to Tone, and set just the Tone value to 88.5 (assuming that's the correct tone), ignoring the ToneSql field.

And following on... If the OP finds distracting (non-repeater traffic) on those channels, THEN set tone mode to TSQL (or whatever Chirp calls it), and set the tone in the ToneSql column.

Great, I'll give that a try.
