You never had an issue because you understood CHIRP ;-) I was able to change all my power settings to LOW, and, encouraged by that, I attempted to do some more block changes. But I didn't know about the Rx|Tx == 0 feature of the UV-5, and how CHIRP handled that, so I blithely changed a bunch of frequencies, only to find that CHIRP changed them back to 88.5. Why 88.5 instead of another freq is a question, but I suppose that it had to be something. Oh, wait, maybe not. If the real value is 0.0 for the CTCSS, why not make it that?

But I /am/ learning, and making notes. Were it not for the ready replies here, I'd still be thinking of taking a hammer to CHIRP.
