> I have used Chirp to setup several UV-5R units and it works fantastic! However, I was trying to setup a UV-5R with the keypad. I see in Chirp there is a setting for Duplex, but this doesn't appear to show up anywhere in the UV-5R. I have compared 462.600 simplex and 462.600 duplex and see no differences in the keypad menu system. if I was to setup a duplex channel manually, I am assuming I would have to set the offsets, etc., even though they show no differences on the UV-5R. Is there another trick I am missing?<br>
<br>
Most Chinese radios like the UV-5R do not use or store the SFT-D or<br>
OFFSET in the channel (MR) mode. They store the only two pieces of<br>
data that are required to create a duplex channel: the RX frequency<br>
and the TX frequency.<br>
<br>
CHIRP allows you to enter the frequency data as a Frequency, Duplex<br>
and Offset, but then CHIRP does the math to determine the TX frequency<br>
and sends it along with the RX frequency to the radio because that is<br>
what it requires.<br>
<br>
When a memory channel is programmed with a repeater, odd-split,<br>
cross-band or TX inhibited channel, then there will be a "+-"<br>
indication in the upper status display area to let you know the RX<br>
frequency and TX frequency are not the same. When a memory channel is<br>
programmed with a simplex channel, then the absence of the "+-" symbol<br>
will let you know that the RX frequency and TX frequency are the same.<br>
<br>
To see the the RX and TX frequencies, select a display line that has<br>
its Memory Display Format set to FREQuency (menu MDF-A or menu MDF-B).<br>
The frequency shown when the [PTT] button is not pressed will be the<br>
RX frequency. When the [PTT] button is pressed the display will switch<br>
to the TX frequency. To see the TX frequency without transmitting just<br>
tap the [*] key to toggle the radio into "reverse mode" (an "R" will<br>
be indicated in the upper status display area). Tap the [*] key again<br>
to exit "reverse mode". The "R" will disappear.<br>
<br>
Menu 25 (SFT-D) and menu 26 (OFFSET) only function and have a purpose<br>
in frequency (VFO) mode. Because they do function in VFO mode, the<br>
individual "+" or "-" indication in the upper status display area will<br>
match the setting of SFT-D.<br>
