    Wow!!! New to your channel and to GMRS programing. I just got a new UV-9G today after buying a UV-5R last week which I'll also be programming with CHIRP. Thanks a lot for this tutorial man, super simple, easy to understand, right to the point. Awesome!!!

    I was in the Signal Corps while in the ARMY, but oh my, that was in the last Millennia. So this is all new to me, and I am doing my best to get up to speed on GMRS and loving everything I can find on it. I have the Baofeng UV9G and have gotten my GMRS license two days ago. So any other tutorial on this radion is greatly appreciated. Still trying to wrap my head around setting up repeaters. In the Army, our repeater setup was quite a bit different. But anything you are willing to post will be helpful for a beginner.

    what is the difference between the DIY and repeater channels? I inputted a local repeater on mine and it would only receive. How do I set it up for a local repeater so I can talk to family further away but within range of the repeater and what channel should I use? I think it uses 462.675 (tone:141.3)

I would image the default channels are heavy used..? Am I able to setup a private channel and how would a user know they are choosing the right one?

      You can setup channels with PL tones. This stops you from hearing others without the tone but not private per-say because they can still hear you.

  • @butopiatoo
    @butopiatoo Рік тому

    nice beginning, but i need a step-by-step on adding GMRS freqs, to a new UV-9Rpro. I see in chirp you can actually grab these at Radio>Import from stock config> US FRS and GMRS Channels and presumably you can then just upload them into your radio overwriting all the default stuff. Similarly, you can grab some Repeters and more importantly the NOAA channels and upload them. Seem that if I want the NOAA channels say at the top of the channel range like you have them, I can just change the channel number and then upload, right? Anyway kind of overwhelming and just want to be able to listen to NOAA and other channels. Thanks for your videos. EDIT...... May have figured this out a little more. Copied blocks of frequencies (FRS GMRS and NOAA) from the source above and then could cut and paste them around in chirp and then uploaded into radio. Will have to see if I can hear anything on the NOAA channels as a test.

    These vidoes are all the same. Showing a screen we can al clearly see for ourselves yet when it comes to a specific DCS code entry no one shows how that's done. Baofeng software nor chirp has an option to plug an exact DCS code in the field, not a one. Frustrating. I'm beginning to feel YT is simply regurgitated content anymore. OR! buy a $350 Wouxan 1000G and do it right off the bat.

      Plus I am real curious. See Here we have GMRS repeaters everywhere. I'm a member of a group that does repeater tones for both transmit and receive. Unfortunately, they're all run by Ham operators and the only help we get is from ourselves. They dont appear to be very helpful. Ive never seen one come back to answer a question. According to what Im seeing on their page, not one of these Ham veterans have ever responded, but they want donations to their repaters. Gladly but be a human. The only help I've ever received was a guy whos is 5 days old to the group. He doesn't have the same model though. And talking about the tone numbers publicly cant be done either, so its a real conundrum. Even in a closed members-only Fb page. So Lets say for giggles I have a Repeater that requires TX tone of, DCS 145N - and RX tone of DCS 036N. Where and how is that put in the fields below. Also, my biggest question Im stumped on...I do not see a Transmit freq for a repeater in the chirp list, only receive freq in the list on CHIRP. So they always say just leave receive wide open but input the DCS transmit tone. Well where the transmit frequency in this chirp list? Well in Chirp there is no 467.725 Im completely lost. Years ago when we talke CB on side channels ther was always a guy you could drive over and toss $20 bucks at and hed help. THose epople no longer exist, wouldnt it be great if you were that guy?
