  • In Part 2 on my Retevis RT-85 Series, I will show you how to use programming software to program your Retevis RT-85.
    The programming software can be found at:
    www.retevis.co...
    PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE. More RT-85 Videos will be posted soon!
    Also, please let Retevis know in the comments below if you like these videos. They were kind enough to send me this radio and If they see people like how I am making videos, maybe they will continue to send me radios. This would allow me to more consistently produce content as buying my own radios for tutorials is becoming fairly expensive.
    Thanks!
    HRD.

    1, 7, turn on…! YOU ARE A LIFESAVER. Mine came locked to only 430-440 and 144-147 MHz and I thought I'd made a huge mistake but now I think it's going to be really useful.

    The RT-85 is working with Chirp now in 2023. I still use the Retevis software sometimes, but I love having Chirp so I can drag and drop from other radios I already have programmed.

    I believe at least on some programming software for the NOAA and whatever else you don't want to transmit on you can leave the TX FREQ. blank and it will disable TX. I think CHIRP is like that.

      AS a plan "B" so it doesn't autofill NOAA, program in 144.000 in tx. Least you'll be in the ham band W9DLP

      Plan B is to set the duplex mode to "off" in Chirp. Rather than "(None)."

    • @HAMRADIODUDE
      @HAMRADIODUDE  3 роки тому +1

      Out of the box, this radio was programmed for some odd frequencies. Off hand, I don't remember what frequencies,. However, you can manually input frequencies from the front panel, listen to weather, listen to FM radio. Good luck with everything!

    Can you not save direct from the vfo to memory or do you have to use software to program? I like to add on the fly but this seems to not have a save to memory function like the baofeng does.

      @HAMRADIODUDE  3 роки тому

      It was a cable retevis sent with the radio. Odds are it was just a rebranded baofeng cable. www.retevis.com/2-pin-programming-cable-for-retevis-h777/

      I just found this information from a few months ago: " The new UV88 radios shipping to the US are pretty well locked down in firmware, You can not receive anything above 450Mhz or 148Mhz even when you program the radio with the CPS. I tried with both CHIRP and the TYT CPS. My intent was to monitor a couple of public safety frequencies. No Joy."
