Kenwood VM-71A/K Crossband Question
开云体育I have question for you. If you are "I'm setting it to simplex
UHF w/CTCSS on one channel and UHF simplex w/o CTCSS on the
other." how is that "cross-band" when they are the same band? Otherwise, look at the rules and you will find that cross-banding
doesn't fit very well. Also not sure what this has to do with Raspberry Pi-4. Mick - W7CAT ----- Original Message -----

I'm setting it to simplex UHF w/CTCSS on one channel and UHF simplex w/o CTCSS on the other. When I attempt to enter Crossband, the PTT doesn't flash and the key does not appear and the unit stays in normal operation. I've tried various things like switching the CTRL channel, changing freq, removing CTCSS, standing on one leg, etc but no joy. I think I am following the procedure properly by Powering OFF, Holding the TONE button, and powering ON. Any suggestions? Thanks. > > Scott/KK6DZ > > > > > > --

Crossband means VHF on one side and UHF on the other. You can not

transmit on the same band that you are listening to, which would cause your crossband receiver to totally desense. On 8/12/2023 8:55 PM, Scott Eckert via groups.io wrote:

开云体育It would really help if you would quote the message you are
replying to. Something like this going out to a large group
probably doesn't tell most people anything. ----- Original Message -----
