Milton,

No CTCSS (or DCS) is carrier. If you want CTCSS, you have to use my other
example.

Set up a channel you want using the OEM software. Upload that to your
radio. Then download from your radio to CHIRP. The way CHIRP has that
channel configured should be the way you would set CHIRP to get what you
want. If that doesn't work, then there is a bug and you should report it.
