Thank you. I was getting confused if I should tune to the repeater input or output frequency. This clears it up nicely. I appreciate your help.

Glad you think so! Thank you.

Thank you ... I think I understand, GMRS radios do this automatically, that's why they only list 1 frequency. Meanwhile for ham handhelds, they list both. Am I right or totally offbase? Thank you. Great videos

It probably can vary by manufacturer, but typically I've seen the radio frequency offset function as a menu item in most radios, and it's possible that GMRS +5 mHz offset is just a simple switch. You could operate on a frequency on GMRS that transmits on a repeater, or on simplex mode, on the same frequency, with that option being just a simple switch function. What's happening behind the scenes automatically is the same net result.

Can you show me how to connect a wouxun kg-805g to a Argent Data ADS-SR1 and turn it into a simplex repeater. I want to build an ammo can simplex repeater and use it for my camping trips . I know there’s more videos, but I love the way you explain things.

Thanks for the suggestion and compliment. I'll put it on the list of topic ideas. I have quite a few others I need to produce first. I'm trying to make the time for more videos.

Let’s say repeater has frequency of 147.33 with +0.600 offset. Instead of using the offset and shift-d parameters, can I set frequency A to 147.93 for transmission while listening on B set at 147.33? I suppose TDR must be set to ON and TDR-AB set to A?

Sorry for the delay. I didn't get a notification from KZread. It is much easier than that. The A and B may be confusing with the A & B on the radio. Use only A or B on your radio. Everything happens in just the one transceiver (A or B). The concept in the radio of A or B is so you can have another channel or frequency in the radio for convenience. It's not for operation on a repeater. Having said that, enter all the information in the A "or" B VFO, not A "and" B. All the transmit and receive functions will happen in the "A" slot. (Or B slot you prefer.) No need to get into the TDR ON function. It's not used for that. I keep mine turned off. Do everything on just A. Once you have it set, then you can move on to another different frequency or repeater on B if you want to. I usually stay in A for convenience. They (A&B) are not united. It's like having two separate radios in one. Does this help?

does we hear our transmit voice?

I'm not sure I understand this question. If you are asking if there is a way to hear your own voice, the only way is by listening on another separate radio. You will not hear your own voice on your own radio unless the repeater has a voice-recorder built into the repeater controller hardware. Though technically possible, it is rarely offered on most analog repeaters, and is at the discretion of the control operators or owners to make that function available. (DMR "Digital Mobile Radio" radios can do that voice replay via the Brandmeister server, but that is digital radio, not analog radio, and a completely different radio operation.) Does that answer your question?

What if the repeater has an uplink of 147.93000 and a downlink frequency of 147.33000, offset +0.6, uplink tone 131.8, downlink tone 131.8

Just to make sure I understand it correctly. The repeater input frequency is 147.93 and the output is 147.33. In high/out low. Your radio offset would +0.600. The frequency set in your radio would be set as 147.33, the repeater output frequency, what you listen on. Then do the offset as +0.600 as your transmit frequency. Set your radio receive frequency first, then the offset to transmit. The tone of 131.8 is set as your radio’s transmit tone. You have the option of using or not using the a receive tone. But you definitely need the radio transmit tone to key up the repeater. Does this answer it?
