I'm currently setting up a UK-5RH Pro Max which is able to monitor around 6 frequency bands as well as having the FM Radio function available on many UV-5Rs.
I've been trying to set-up a number of additional FM radio frequencies in the range of 88.8 MHz to 107.5 MHz for stations in and around London here in the UK. These frequencies can for the most part be found on the FM radio function, but they can't be named with the built in FM radio scanner - so was seeking to create these as a set of defined channels in my configuration file. I have created these as a CSV and have loaded them into Chirp as a CSV import. However I don't seem to be able to insert them into the configuration file for the handset. Unfortunately, I receive the message "Some memories are incompatible with this radio" and specific errors such as "Frequency 96.400000 is out of supported range" for all 60 that I'm trying to insert. I have added other frequencies from 108 MHz onwards and there are absolutely no problems with these - so am sure that the method I'm using to add these is correct. It seems to just be the question around adding any frequencies below 108 MHz and the Chirp configuration and/or the Radio not accepting them. I've checked the radio and I can scan all of the ranges outlined below, so the radio is capable of receiving on those ranges: - 65-108 MHz FM RX - 108-136 MHz AM RX AM Air Receiving Only - 136-174 MHz FM TX/RX - 220-260 MHz FM TX/RX - 350-390 MHz FM RX - 400-480 MHz FM TX/RX - 480-520 MHz FM RX I have used both the Baofeng UV-5RH and Baofeng 5RM but neither of these allow these frequencies to be added to the listing. I was keen to have FM radio channels with names and direct selection via the channel selection capability, but it seem that this isn't possible. It means that I'd need to scan anywhere where I am and hope to guess what the radio station is. Would anyone know why the software (or Radio/Profile) isn't allowing me to add these frequencies? _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.chirpmyradio.com/postorius/lists/users.lists.chirpmyradio.com To unsubscribe, send an email to [email protected] To report this email as off-topic, please email [email protected] List archives: https://lists.chirpmyradio.com/hyperkitty/list/[email protected]/
