ID-52A Plus & C2-52Plus MEMA Freq. Programming Issue

[D31245]

I am trying to program a frequency in the C2-52Plus Programming software, but it will not accept it. I am programming the MEMA Westboro Region 4 frequency: 151.4525 (Tone: 229.1 PL) (Mode: FMN). I was able to get other MEMA frequencies in but for some reason, Westboro cannot be entered.

When I type in 151.4525, the software rounds up to 151.455000. I tried different tuning steps but to no avail and and am not sure if that's the issue.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

The tuning step for the VHF band is supposed to be 7.5k. This is a relatively recent change (within the last 20 years or so), so any devices older than that might not be capable of 7.5k steps.

If you try it, you might also find that 151.455 is close enough that it works even if the frequency is off a little.

Great! Thank you @mrsvensven. I will program that in and see what I get. Much appreciated!
