TYT TH-9800 Cross banding.

[piper9285]

I have a TYT TH-9800 installed in my car, and with it the capability of monitoring aircraft frequencies. I programmed an FRS frequency to use in crossband repeater mode, but for some reason it doesn't seem to be working. Any idea why?

Maybe crossband repeat won't work on frequencies or modes where the radio can't transmit.

What exactly are you trying to do? That radio doesn't transmit on aircraft frequencies, & if it isn't unlocked, it doesn't transmit outside the ham bands.

Hello,
I have the same radio, and there is a mod that opens it up, but I forgot exactly how I did it, it has been several years since I did it.
BTW, since cross-band has come up, I am wondering:
Will this radio cross-band from 6 meter to 10 meter, or does it only cross-band from 70 cm / 2m to 6 & 10?
I have an HT that does 6 & 2 M, and I'd like to set my TYT to cross-band from 6M to 10M.
Thanks.
