Hi I have a question. I am using Chirp to program my Baofeng. The specific channel I want to program has one frequency for tx and one frequency for rx. I know how to program that into Chirp, but I am having trouble with the PL tones. We have a 2 different PL tones for the tx and rx frequencies. They are UHF channels and are already programed into our Motorola radio, but we are trying cheaper radios for our business. The radio is programed with:
TX Squelch: TPL,2Z,110.9
RX Squelch: TPL,5Z,151.4
Channel bandwidth 25
I know that 2Z and 5Z are the PL tones for Motorola radios. But what is the TPL and how do I program that into Chirp?
In Chirp there is the tone mode, tone, and tone squelch columns. What do I put there? Where do I put the PL tone for the TX channel and the PL tone for the RX channel?
Do I have to put anything in the DTCS Code, DTCS RX, or DTCS Pol columns?
I have the cross mode column set as tone-tone, is that correct? In the duplex column I have it set to split and in the offset column I have it set to the exact frequency for RX. In the mode column I have it set to FM, is that correct?
I would really appreciate someone to help me with this. It may seem very simple to some people, but I am new to the amateur field and I am trying to learn. I have some of the basic understanding, but I need a little guidance to complete my programing. Thanks!
