You have you best programming videos for this model radio.I have the 220 mhz version & I followed your instructions with ease.The owners manual is WRONG when it tells you how to set the repeater offset.It was driving me Crazy until I watched your videos.I only have Three frequencies programmed & I have them named but my base antenna is only 12 feet off of the ground so one repeater & Two Simplex frequencies.I am picking up another one tomorrow for my mobile & I will have the same three frequencies in it as well.
I’m having a problem when I key up on a certain Chanel. It is programmed with a positive offset and a PL tone. It works the first few times then it won’t let me key up. When I key up the LCD screen flashes OFF. Was wondering if anyone has run into this problem
Thank you for this video - this is quite helpful! I know you posted this video 5 years ago so I don't know if you still have this rig, but you might be able to help with my problem. I recently purchased a used TH 9000 D, the 220 MHz version. This unit was a display model at R and L Electronics. My problem is no one hearing me on TX. I have the offset and offset direction correctly set. When I key the mic, the meter shows full deflection, as if the radio is transmitting. Another ham and I tried simplex to see if it was a CTCSS problem. Nope, same problem on simplex. He even tuned up and down as I transmitted to see if the frequency was off. No joy. I can hear everything: repeater and on simplex, but it is as if there is no modulation on my TX signal. Please know I am grateful for any insight or advice you might have. Many thanks!
There was a lot of static coming from the radio on the freq you programed and tested on. Was that due to the distance you were from the repeater or is that static present on all repeaters? Just curious. Nice instructive video!
@@jbshomestead7694 That's what I was thinking. I've talked to several hams with these radios and they all pretty much agreed with you. I'm looking to get the 220 version, which I assume operates the same as the radio you have regarding the memory settings, etc. Thanks for the fast response bro..73
When I got my TH-9800, it said on the instructions that you need to go to a link to download for the 136-174 MHz freqs. I am 70, and I keek going to the site, and nothing. How can I program them in, along with 400-480 MHz. Any direction would help, or a radio repair place. Thanks Bob
Just tried to program mine. When typing in keypad to set frequencies, it wont take any numbers past 3, but defaults back to 155.055. Cant figure this thing out!
When I push my PTT button the screen says "OFF" and beeps 3 times really fast. Also my TX light does not light when I push the PTT button. As long as I hold the PTT button the unit will display the "OFF" message. This unit is new out of the box and I'm trying to get it going. Any help?
The VHF model will NOT go to the UHF frequencies so I say you purchased the WRONG version of the radio.They make Three different bands,2 meters,220 mhz,& 440 mhz.
