CHIRP

Hello:

I have found a problem with the Tone squelch for the AnyTone AT-5888UV radio. Chirp looks fine and the radio looks like the tone enc/dec is set. However, the radio is in carrier squelch mode, the tones are not actually obeyed. The problem is the menu setting #16, which is "Squelch Mode Setup". That is set to "SQ" which is carrier squelch. I can change this to "CT/DCS" on the radio and the tone squelch now works correctly. But once I change channels I lose this setting.

I was able to successfully program the radio using the factory software. Their software has the "more" section, and in there, for each channel, I can select "Squelch Mode" to be "CTCSS/DCS" Once that is done for each channel and programmed, the tone squelch works. It seems that Chirp is not setting this value when TSQ is selected.

Thanks, Larry
