I've been using Baofengs for a year now. I have a UV-5RD+, a BF-F9 V2+,
and a UV-XR. Since I live on an island in the Atlantic, and my contact
with North America is through two repeaters on Cape Cod, I love the dual
watch feature. If I program the radio to display the name on the first
line and the frequency on the second line, how would I monitor two
repeaters and exactly what buttons would I have to push to make that
happen? Chris Knowles
