    Thanks for the video. Question - I literally have the exact same hardware as your video, have the exact settings you laid out, too. However, as soon as the repeater radios are turned on, the red light (sits below VFO/MR button) comes on for both radios. I tried changing the TX / RX freqs by going up to 147.420 and 148.420 but still same problem. Any suggestions? (this video got my subscription)

      @@AM-KX is your receive antenna near electronics like wifi or a phone? Also, does the surrounding environment have a lot of RF interference that you can think of? These would be the only things I can think of off the top of my head. It is a Baofeng so don't be surprised if you need to get new ones to do it successfully. I also have something like 10 or more UV-5R radios floating around the house and I did have to have a couple of the better working radios to make it work. Thanks for watching and subscribing!

      @@thesaltyham7144 actually yes - was working with them right near the desk / computer with both wifi and bluetooth connections galore. LOL! I'll get them outside and give it another try. But there's no wiring issue (wiring regarding the baofeng crossover box/cable that you have - which I have) or add'l settings internal to the UV5R that you know of that could cause it? Thanks and have a great weekend.
