Baofeng Baofeng UV5R8W Programing of a repeater

[stlouisx50]

I have a Baofeng UV5R8W that I am needing assistance programing for repeater use as well as simplex.

The info is as follows:

462.075 MHZ (Repeater) Output DCS155
467.075 MHZ (input) DCS155


I programed 462.075 with the DCS155N on Transmit as well as Receive, set the Offset to 5.000

We can hear the new radio on our old system, however the new Baofeng is not receiving the repeater, only the old radios output. I am confident that the receive DCS is correct as I have verified it before with the scanner.

I have viewed youtube videos as well as read instructions online, but still can't seem to get it all set up.


If there is anyone who can help, we would appreciate it.

Never mind I figured it out.

Would you mind sharing in case others have this issue?

The OP said, "I programed 462.075 with the DCS155N on Transmit as well as Receive, set the Offset to 5.000..."

The fix was to set the Rx at 462.075 and program the offset to 5.000. The software then calculates the proper Tx frequency (467.075).

Add a + if the input is above the repeater output or - if it's lower in the r Shft-D option
