[chirp_users] Duplex off with Baofeng uv-5r8w

[Ken Hansen]

I don't understand - I've read your description several times, and I can't follow it.

Are you trying to transmit close to a band edge and the duplex function locks the radio when the offset is outside the authorized band?

Duplex is a menu item, set per channel, you can set it to + positive, - negative, or off (simplex).

Additionally, you can set the size of the offset in the menu.

Menu items can be changed either through the programming software or the radio's "front panel"

The two UV-5R8W that display all 6's in the frequency and locks the radios in the transmit mode unit powered down, upon restating it works fine, unless I try to TX on the duplex off frequency again. All three radios have BFB298 and 210223 firmware display. Chrip display HN5RV01 as the firmware. I am using the radio model UV-5R on the UV-5R+plus and using the BF-F8HP model for the UV-5R8W radios.
