<div>My older UV-82 will go to the chanel that had the last RX. My BF-F8+ and my UV-82HP stay on the channel that I told it to be on. Of course the UV-82's have the dual ptt. I actually like the fact that it keeps the channel I selected, that way if I'm talking on one frequency and the other frequency has a station id, I can keep talking on the original frequency without fear of my radio transmitting on the wrong frequency. I see the benefit of the other as well. Of course I am new to the hobby and don't know any better yet. It just works fine for me at this time.<br/>

What you have stated above is completely clear.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately this is something that Baofeng has accidentally or<br>
intentionally changed. It began with the release of N5R firmware for<br>
the UV-5R series of radios and variants about a year ago. It has just<br>
recently started rolling out in the UV-82 radios with the N82<br>
firmware.<br>
<br>
This is the way the hardware works. CHIRP can do nothing about it.<br>
<br>
The best you can do is get person 2 to say "this is person 2 calling<br>
on 446" so that person 1 will know which frequency to reply on.<br>
