<ul><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>New</i> to <i>Feedback</i></li></ul><p>Sean,</p>
<p>I would suggest that you use the factory software to program a handful of channels with various DCS configurations.</p>
<p>The 1st channel would be a control channel with no tones/codes. Alpha tag could be NONE.<br>
The 2nd channel could be DN023 both TX and RX. Alpha tag could be 023NN<br>
The 3rd channel could be DI023 both TX and RX. Alpha tag could be 023RR<br>
And possibly a 4th and 5th channel with 023NR and 023RN</p>
<p>Download from the radio into CHIRP and save it to a CHIRP Radio Images(*.img) file. Then attach the saved image to this issue. This would give a developer something that could be used for testing.</p>

<p>As per your request, the radio was programmed using the OEM software with the following criteria:</p>
<p>Channel 1 contained no DCS codes.<br>
Channel 2 contained 023 Normal on Tx and Rx.<br>
Channel 3 contained 023 Reversed (inverted) on Tx and Rx.<br>
Channel 4 contained 023 Normal on Tx, and 023 Reversed on Rx.<br>
Channel 5 contained 023 Reversed on Tx, and 023 Normal on Rx.</p>
<p>When read by CHIRP - I've attached the .img file - channels 2-5 all show (ERROR) - though I'm not a programmer, so I don't know what's going on "under the hood."</p>
<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>And with my apologies, I believe I noted channels 4 and 5 backwards. 4 is reversed on TX and normal on RX. 5 is normal on TX and reversed on RX. Just realized it when looking at the screenshot I attached.</p>

<ul></ul><p>P.S. Jim, not sure why I typed Dan... Except that my coworker was sitting right next to me while I way typing and was incredibly distracting! Apologies! 73, Sean</p>

I believe it corrects all the issues with the UV8D Tones.<br><br>
I tried your image contents and it decoded them just like the Wouxun SW shows in your image. </p>
