Guest ORJeeper Posted February 27 Report Posted February 27 I am new to GMRS and have a Baofeng AR-5RM. I loaded it with FRS, GMRS, Repeaters, and Weather, Sheriff and Fire Dept frequencies using chirp. When I scroll up through the channels in channel mode it won't go past channel 74. It returns to channel 1. Am I doing something wrong? Quote
WRUU653 Posted February 27 Report Posted February 27 Assuming you programmed in more than 74 channels. Have you tried downloading from the radio again to see what's actually there? I don't know this radio personally but chirp should tell you what you were able to put in. WRHS218 and SteveShannon 2 Quote
Socalgmrs Posted February 27 Report Posted February 27 The radio will only scroll to the highest preset channel you have. Do you have more the 74? WRHS218 and SteveShannon 2 Quote
Guest ORJeeper Posted February 27 Report Posted February 27 Yes I have more than 74 presets. When I download from radio in chirp they are all there. Quote
Guest ORJeeper Posted February 27 Report Posted February 27 Figured it out. I had to many spreadsheets open and was looking at the wrong file. I have 74 channels preset in the radio Quote
