So the way I have my program list setting in Chirp is correct for the 146.760 repeater saved in channel 1? I keep thinking that maybe something is backwards or in the wrong column and thats why the Chirp file says -.600 but it changes to -00.000 once its uploaded i to my radio. Of course once in a while the B band would get some activity but 95% of the time there would be nothing at all when I was trying to pick up the local repeater in the A band.

Before that, it had been at least several months and on windows 7 or 8 since I had uploaded anything on my radios.Īs far as the dual watch mode and possibly not hearing the repeater because the other channel was receiving thats a negative. Ive been doing all this programming on a week old laptop with wi dows 10.

I was definitely using an older version of chirp for the programmed list in my radios before I uploaded them into the newest version of Chirp with wi dows 10. If your radio is showing the "+-", you may still be good to go. Have you tried to key up the repeater at all? I really doubt anyone would notice a 0.5-second long transmission just to see if you can get back the repeater's courtesy tone or squelch tail (and if someone is so steamed-up by a mysterious 0.5 second transmission, you probably would not want to associate with that person anyway). I just looked at one of the (properly working) repeater channels on mine, it too shows a 000.000 offset. The offsets I've programed are correct though. I have no idea why it does that (mine's the GT-3TP, or same as the BF-F8HP but with a better receiver). Mine also displays the "+ -" after uploading to it from Chirp. The repeater output will always has a tone (same tone as used on the input), and if you choose to set a RX tone on your own radio, you will be able to receive the repeater while blocking out any other local interference or other distant repeaters you might hear. So it's best to have the TX tone already programmed into your radio just in case it goes into effect.

Or maybe try resetting the radio again, then download the radio's default setting again, modify it, then reupload that.Īs for the tone, what that page is saying is a TX (input) tone is normally not required, but will be selectively implemented to keep interference from keying up the repeater spontaneously when required. Click to expand.There must be something amiss with that list then (that or maybe there's a bug in that version of Chirp? Were you using a different version previously?)
