Where to save changes to frequencies?

[WSBQ451]

When I'm done programming frequencies and channels and stuff using GM30 software, which folder should I save it to so that my channel list doesn't dissappear in the software? Thanks!

You can save it wherever you want.  Just remember where you put it.  

For example, create a folder on your desktop and call it "Radio" or "GM30" and put the saved file there.

Ok sounds good. But I guess my question would be how do I get the software to list the changes that I have made? Everytime I open the software, it listes the default DIY channels. Thanks.

The really good programmers (like RT Systems) default to the last file opened.  Some of the vendor-supplied ones don't do that and you have to re-open the file.  If you click on "Open" you should see the name of your saved file.

I created a folder in my Home folder called "GMRS" and I have folders inside of that like the pic shows. It's kind of a "Russian Doll" kind of thing where there's folders inside of folders. I also save them all off to a USB stick in case of a computer mishap or if I'd like to share them with someone.

I simply rename the file to what I've done to it. You can see in the above pic that I have the "Factory" UV-5R" program and then I renamed it to "Baofeng_UV-5R_GMRS_MURS_DPS_and then the date you modified it." so I know it from the factory downloaded file.

Thank you all!
