Ok, so I will sitting for my Tech license in Feb and will be getting a GMRS license as well. I live in the Atlanta area (which most know, from the news, is never ready to handle a winter storm). I want to program the GMRS repeaters and then the general frequencies into a radio for my wife to use to get a hold of me in an emergency (cell phones down). She has no interest in radio and therefore no knowledge. I want to use the repeaters because my job has me throughout the Atlanta area. That being said, yes I know this may seem like a dumb question, how do I use the repeater info in CHIRP? This is the repeater info:
Repeater: Kenwood TKR-850
Repeater Antenna: Andrew DB-413
Feedline: Heliax LDF7
Site ASL Elevation: 2320′ ASL
Tower/Antenna Height: 245′
Frequency: 462/467.625 MHz
PL/DPL Tone: 141.3 Hz
How would I enter this info into CHIRP? I understand the theory of how everything works I just don't know the programming side of this goes. Again, I know this may seem like a dumb question so please do not filet me over this, and appreciate any help.
P.S. yes I understand the rules and regulations and I will pass on what she needs to know.
