WRQE716 Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 As it said I can't program my RA25. Have the programming cable. Can make changes but can't get the offset for the repeater. Help Please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 5 minutes ago, WRXE944 said: As you will note, above, the "offset" for repeaters, starting in Channel 23, is the 5 MHz difference between the RX and TX Frequencies. In Channels 23 through 30, you should not be able to make changes for the Frequencies; as they are pre-established for GMRS. In the DIY Channels, starting in Channel 31; again, the 5 MHz difference between the RX and TX Frequencies should already be entered. Honestly, this seems to be the biggest difference between the day-to-day 440 use of Ham vs. GMRS radios: Pre-Fixed channel settings with limited flexibility vs. "whatever" menus I fell into the same "trap" and frustration on my first attempt to program a GMRS HT - if you want to change parameters, you need to select a DIY channel whereas on Ham HTs: Every memory slot is DIY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
