Baofeng UV-9G won't transmit on freqs entered from keypad even when they are GMRS freqs.

It appears my 9G will transmit properly when using frequencies that were already entered into radio or entered using the software.

However, when I enter a valid GMRS frequency in frequency mode from the radio keypad the radio will not transmit on that freq.

Anyone else seen this problem.

Thanks, John

Hey John, the Baofeng UV-9G only transmits in channel mode. You can save as many GMRS channels as it will hold (127 I think) for different repeaters settings and what not but you can't transmit in frequency mode.

If I recall correctly, that is by design.

Appreciate the answer!  Thanks, John
