Bug #211

Dan,
Here's what I received from Jim KC3HI
Being sent as a reference to the original request.
John,
Q: Can I disable the transmitter on Monitor Only frequencies?
A: Yes. This can be done using the CHIRP software.
Enter the desired receive frequency.
In the Duplex Field, select SPLIT
In the Offset Field, enter 0.0
000.000 will display when transmitter is keyed. No RF is generated.
The method shown is much simpler, but I preferr to put 1666.666650 in
the Offset Field. This is the value that would be in there if you
would download the channels from a radio that was programmed with the
Baofeng software and had the TX field blank. This works because with a
1.666666650 GHz offset, the TX frequency is out of range no matter
what RX frequency is programmed. It also results in the same behavior
as a channel programmed with a blank TX frequency using the Baofeng
software; a short beep is emitted when the PTT is depressed to let you
know that TX was inhibited.

Thanks again,John K3NXU
