<p>Looking in the software it doesn't seem like there's way to change the PTT-ID or ANI. The UV-xx original software has a place for both. In CHIRP the PTT-ID for VFO just shows as a list of 1 - 15 and there is no ANI listed under DTMF Encoding Settings. </p>
</blockquote>
<p>If I understand you question, here is how it works.</p>
<p>PTT-ID and ANI are roughly equivalent. In the UV-xx models, PTT-ID is a per-channel setting and ANI is a global setting. These mobile radios just support PTT-ID so the enabling of PTT-ID and selection of which PTT ID signal code to use is a per-channel setting.</p>
<p>Just like the UV-xx radios, enabling PTT-ID and the selection of which PTT-ID signal code to use is done in the "Other" tab of the Memory Properties editor. The Memory Properties menu is accessed by doing either of the following...</p>
<p>Method 1<br>
1 Click the memory row you want to edit to highlight it<br>
2 Click the [Properties] button at the top of the spreadsheet style memory editor</p>
<p>Method 2<br>
1 Right-click a memory row you want to edit<br>
2 Select "Properties" in the menu that appears</p>
<p>In the "Other" tab of the Memory Properties editor you enable PTT-ID with the "PTT-ID:" selection and choose the DTMF code to use by selecting it with the "PTT ID signal code:" selection.</p>

<p>Also, is there a way to sync up A and B on the screen in VFO and MR mode?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>No. Not automatically. Only the BTECH labeled models of these mobile radio variants sold by Baofeng Tech (the radio dealer in the USA) have a SYNC feature to keep the A and B display lines automatically in sync. With other radio brands the use must manually sync the channels as required.</p>

CHIRP - Feature #7925: KT-8900 PTT-ID and ANIhttps://chirpmyradio.com/issues/7925?journal_id=252352020-06-02T00:18:22ZPete Yakovichpete.yakovich@gmail.com
<ul></ul><p>Thanks Jim! I was looking around and wondering if there was a way to setup my ANI for use with APRS like this: <a href="http://aprs.org/ani.html">http://aprs.org/ani.html</a> or so that when I sent my PTT code or ANI it would be my call sign with the encoding mentioned on their site. The PTT ID setting seems to be a list of 1 through 15, does that then reference the DTMF Codes 1-15 on the radio?</p>
