Wouxon KG-Q10G repeater function unable to toggle off/on

[WSAV294]

Brand new to all of this, so pretty sure this is an operator error issue...

After pressing the menu/enter button and toggling to Repeater(09), I haven't been able to select the "off" to switch to "on" by pressing the menu/enter button.  When I do so, I get sent back to the Home Screen.  This doesn't happen with other functions.  I've gone through the manual a number of times will little enlightenment.  I'm a Mac guy so the programming software isn't an option.  Any suggestions?

It tells you in the manual you cannot change the option unless you set the radio into frequency mode. Once you change it it will allow you to change it.

Have you checked to see if you have the preprogrammed “repeater channels” active.   Can you program in a repeater?  Rx tx offset and tones?   I’d bet it’s ready to go.

I'll give it a try, use the channel wizard function.  Thanks.

I don't have the Q10G but I have the 935G+ with the Channel Wizard. When I use the Channel Wizard to change that setting I have to press the  Exit key to get back to the home screen and pressing Exit saves the changes. I also tried making the change and just letting the Channel Wizard time out and the change was saved. I don't know the answer to your issue I just thought I would let you know how the channel wizard works on a different, although similar, radio. Lets us know how it turns out.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.  Right now it's all magic to me.

MSnow, it even says that in my manual, imagine that.  Thanks a bunch.

Frequency mode was the answer, Thank you!
