    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 Bao, because of it's useful properties, is great in a SHTF scenario when you can choose from multiple modes of communication. Don't bash the Bao, embrace it.

      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.

This and a few other videos, yours and others, are gold mines full of nuggets for us. This is perhaps the most complicated part .. got a new radio .. now what. One step, one video, one new piece of information at a time. Thanks for the assist.

    So, at 66 I am dipping my toes into HAM radio and starting on the path to getting my Tech license. This video was very easy to follow for someone like me that has never touched a HAM radio before. Many thanks for this video it made programing my new radio painless and the CHIRP program is so much easier than trying to use the radio keypad.

    Very well done video! Having been around radios and scanners my whole life first working for the fire department and then getting into law enforcement for a total of just shy of 30 years before retiring I know this isn't necessarily rocket science but for some people just getting into these areas that sure helps to see a very well done and easy to understand video like yours. I watched your video because you were dealing with Chirp Next. I have been getting away with the Legacy version of Chirp for several years now but I just bought the new Baofeng AR-5RM as seen on NotaRubicon. As luck would have it Chirp Next will not work on my old laptop, which is 32-bit. Of course Legacy is not updated so none of the newer radios show up in that version. I ordered a new PC which should get here in 2 days and then I will load Chirp Next and be ready to rock and roll. You helped me get an idea of some of the minor differences between the Legacy version and Next. Thanks for the info!

    Thank you, Josh. This was one of the most well-presented RUclips videos I've seen. You made the information clear and easy to understand, particularly for the new ham user. Your sequencing was logical, personal, and surgically on target. You emphasized and repeated as necessary the most important information as you proceeded through the video, keeping the viewer fully engaged in the process being described. You maintained a consistent empathetic register without lapsing into techspeak. An outstanding presentation. Thanks, again, and keep it up.

    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

  • @DarkShadowCustoms
    @DarkShadowCustoms Год назад +8

    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.

    Thanks for the Video, Josh! FYI Radioddity now has a cable that works with Windows 11and the GT-5R, BaoFeng PC001 FTDI USB Programming Cable. The previous cable was not supported in Win 11 (Baofeng UV-5R Programming Cable), it uses a Prolific 2303 chip that is old technology that MS dropped in Win11. The folks at Radioddity were very helpful and sent me the new cable at no cost and not requiring me to return the old one.
    I also had a problem with one of the chargers that came with my 2 - GT-5R's and since they had no new chargers in stock sent me another complete radio setup (without a return) to replace the defective charger. You can't beat Radioddity's customer service!
    I like this little GT-5R, though it needs the 3800mah Batt Pack to feel right in my hand, its too tiny in my hand with its stock 1800mah BP. I've been licensed since '76 and see no need for a different handheld. 73 mike N4ONL

  • @TheHandyHam73
    @TheHandyHam73 9 месяцев назад

    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.

    I just used this today and was wanting to ask for a video! Man, TBH, I kinda regret updating; there is still a lot of bugs to be worked out. I recommend sticking with the older “legacy” version for at least a couple more months. It was WAY easier to reorganize channels before. Some software errors when changing settings to loaded station lists required redoing download and going back a step. For now, no bueno.

    Great Video. I just updated to Chirp next. I am now working on updating my programing adding/updating the local repeaters ect.
    Here is a suggestion for a video although it may take a new tool. Plotting the local repeaters on a map or pulling your programmed repeaters into a mapping tool so that you can have a paper map of the repeaters in your radio. Uses would be Cells down or no service, planning a road trip. There are times it would be good to see visually. Since the repeater book filter do appear to be by distance it would be good to have a way to see. I found that if I look each repeater up on the repeater book app the grid square is there the data is available I just do not see a way to export it and then plot it.
    I do love your content.

    I programmed my baofeng a couple weeks ago and had to install the old chirp to get it to work right.

    thank you so much! I don't know, if you know but, I couldn't find My Baofeng BF-F8TD in the "model" drop box in the Chirp Radio file. So, I just used UV5R. Someone said the BFF8td, was an upgraded radio. but still a UV5R. it seemed to work. it uploaded my choices in the repeater book. not when I get my FCC Lic. I need to talk and test it all out. that apparently will be the real test if I programmed it right. lol! Thank you for this vid!

      Indeed a good feature! But still learn how to find your own port.

    Hmmm... nothing in this video really covered "(GMRS, FRS, MURS)" not sure why you put that in your subject line. Thanks for the heads up on a new version of CHIRP

    In years past I had nothing but problems with Prolific 2303 chips since most of the commercially made cables had counterfeit 2303's, and Prolific put out a driver that would not work with them. I used homebrew cables using the CP2102 chips with good success. I did the UV-5R programming on my own and all of my ham club members. Have not done that for some time and recently bought a new commercial cable using the CH340 chip. I had gone through two other laptops in the interim and my latest did not have the right driver, nor could I seem to find a driver for the CP2102. The CH340 cable worked like a charm. No problems at all.

      Yet the FTDI chip cable has existed all since then and has consistently worked.

    I Love your show. How about doing some demos with/on a MAC. I will be trying the 'new" Chirp very soon and loved the info. "73"s. I would love to chat with you sometime "on the air". Have a good one.

      It’s the same basic process. I don’t think it needs another video.

    Yeah, the thought of GMRS and NOAA special ops kicking down my door gives me shivers. This is why I am not so fond of my HAM brothers & sisters (mostly brothers) - the pretentious people. That being said, thanks for the tour, very informative!

    From memory, I think there is an alarm function that you really want to turn off. Otherwise, if you hit the wrong button you could accidentally broadcast an annoying noise.

    Thank you for the walk through… I bought a Boff-Wang (emphasized)… radio for a scanner, and I think Chirp is going to make it a lot easier (especially with being able to disable the PITT function on police channels). Hopefully it works out.
    It’s sad when a transceiver is cheaper than a receiver for scanning.
