Hello All!
A while back I picked up a Baofeng just to use as a cheap scanner but became more interested in the Radio World…. I figured I would take advantage of this winter weather and study for my license. I also figured I would get a real radio so I picked up Yaesu FT-60R. I was already using CHIRP for my Baofeng, so I figured I would just be able to copy and past all the local police and fire frequencies from one to the other. I was able to Download from radio from radio, but not UPLOAD to radio. I tried with CHIRP and then I tried with FT Commander. No dice. There are so many videos out there on programming this radio but I can’t find one for programing them via PC.
Any insight on what I am missing?
Yes I know I am lazy, but I figured I would use this as a scanner like my Baofeng.
Thanks so much in advance!
