Bug #2875
closedRequired inaudible tones?
0%
Description
Folks:
I have the older BaoFeng (Pofung) Uv-3R radios. I tried putting together a "file" for them, using local repeaters, US Marine VHF and NOAA weather stations. I saved them all as *.CSV files. I tried leaving various columns blank, since those transmitters, or "channels", did not use tones and tone-controlled squelch. Unfortunately, CHIRP would not import those (CSV) files without some "value" in the "accepted range" for various columns.
Required values included "off" in the Duplex column; "0" (zero) in the Offset column; "some acceptable value" in the rToneFreq and cToneFreq columns. But that last value HAD to have a value from the available list; it could not be "zero".
I don't want to broadcast bass tones for my conversations, and the human ear can hear those tones.
I have read the documentation. I have read the FAQ and the Help files.
What have I not yet understood?
I would greatly appreciate your guidance.
If there is some way I might help you folks, please let me know. I would like to perhaps code, test, or whatever.
Respectfully
Greg
