I too plan on putting in the CB frequencies.

Glenn, I have a well worn, scratched up TH-F6. I don't use memory banks. I have just over 100 frequencies in my Chirp CSV that's shared with a TM-D700 and a Baofeng UV82. Yes, there is a 0 and that's where I put 146.520 hailing frequency. Receiving outside the VHF and UHF range is not good. I'm guessing the combination of filters and the antenna cause that. Because I want to track the truckers on CB on the road and I'm by the sea on vacation. Here are my HF frequencies:


      Air 118 
      SEACH1 158.8 
      SeaHF8mh 8.1 
      CB19Truk 27.185 
      CB9Emrcy 27.065

  Hi,
  I'm hoping my new programming cable comes today so I can program my Kenwood TH-F6 hand-held.
  So I know that it has over 400 memory slots, and it can RX all the HF frequencies.
  So I'm wondering how it works while in Chirp, so I can plan my CSV file.
  Since I'm Blind and cannot read the display, I may have questions that might otherwise seem obvious to you.

  1: Does it have a channel 0, or do they start with 1?
  2: I read of banks of memories in groups of 50 for different bands.  Is this have to be kept to, or is it just a convenience?
  In my Baofeng's CSV file, they are intermixed.
  3: Can anyone recommend some common HF frequencies that I can program into it?

  Thanks.
