Thank you for this! Especially the hint about turning duplex to "off." So many throw an absolute fit about Baofengs "because they can be set to transmit out of amateur bands." Well, number 1 - just because the machine can do something that breaks the rules doesn't mean it should be held accountable. I wonder how many of these fudds, lids, and sad hams would blame cars for drunk driving fatalities, guns for murders, and spoons for fatness?! No! It is the person using them the wrong way, not the object itself. And just because out of band frequencies can be programmed doesn't mean they shouldn't be. Be responsible! Turn the duplex to "off!" Think back to your tech quiz! YOU are responsible for your station! Same way YOU are responsible for your car! Just because you "are afraid to drive" (aka, use a Baofeng) doesn't mean you get to dictate that I shouldn't be able to use one when I can use it responsibly and not transmit outside my band privileges! Also, remember, it isn't against any rule to listen to anything over the radio! What gets people into trouble is TXing!

The same thing can be said for our Second Amendment right just because you have a gun doesn't mean you can handle that gun irresponsible you're the one responsible for the gun not just the gun Common Sense will tell you again doesn't have a mind of its own it's the person that's operating it the same way with our radios we don't go out of band and transmit when we're not license for it we can like you say however listen to it it's okay to do that irresponsible

Absolutely! It's hard to beat a 20 dollar HT. My old UV-5r died; so I just ordered another one so I can back into ham radio. Apparently the current models are limited to TX on the ham bands. But you can jailbreak them for general TX. I like that it requires deliberate effort to TX out of band. Maybe this will keep people from using these for MURS, FRS ETC. But like you said it's the responsibility of the individual not the radio.

Wow this is what a newbie (like me) needs to get started! I got my Technician license last week and have met with a few club members . One of them suggested just play with your radio and figure it out. Easier said than done. I feel confident after watching your video and downloading CHIRP and playing with it. I have subscribed to your channel and look forward, with confidence, to experience my Ham!

@DarkShadowCustoms Жыл бұрын

One thing I miss with the new version is the ability to import an already existing profile. I do like that I can now filter for both 2 meter and 70cm instead of having to query them separately. I also like the fact I can now query for only repeaters with FM mode and filter out the digital modes. Although I did notice that it may still omit repeaters that you can use analog FM while digital modes are also being used. My club's 70cm repeater is capable of Fusion and WIRES, but you can still transmit using analog FM while someone is transmitting digital.

I like the new version of Chirp. I have RT systems on some of my units but Chirp works well. I sometime become the guy that programs the Newbie's HT. I usually set it up so they have all the same repeaters in the same location on the unit as everyone else. Makes it easier to explain what channel to change to. I also like to use it to program by Kenwood TH-F6A. the program Kewnood provides is really out of date for doing that. Always enjoy your videos. 73

I've had a Baofeng radii for a couple of months, but I couldn't figure out how to use CHIRP. I just followed your video step-by-step, and YAY! I'm up and running!! I'll be listening on the repeaters until my license is posted in the FCC database, and then I'll be ready to go on the air! THANKS!!

Thank you for this video. One issue I encountered that may not have been emphasized enough is that if you do the programming and your radio does not accept programming - check the programming cable plug into the side of the radio and make sure it is plugged in securely as it can be difficult to determine if it is connected properly and this will prevent the radio from accepting programming.
