RE: [Repeater-Builder] TKR-820 and the Kenwood KPT-20 Programmer
Mark, I have one of these programmers also! I will be interested in any responses!

My next task is to reprogram the frequency and PL options. I have a KPT-20 programmer, and the manual for it (and the repeater), but the programmer manual is not what I would call intuitive.

The repeater is currently on 462.155 (+5 Meg, with DPL) and I want to move it to 444.550 (+5 with PL 114.8). The radio does not have a channel change knob or channel display, so I assume it is only a single channel repeater (although it appears the EEPROM doesnt care about that). I have tried to fumble my way through reprogramming this, but when I get to the VERIFY portion, I get a failure message.

FYI 462.155 is not a channel in the FCC list for use in the US. - Original Message - From: N9WYS To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, May 06, 2005 8:01 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] TKR-820 and the Kenwood KPT-20 Programmer Well, everyone, I finally have my external controller (CAT-300) configured and working on this machine.
