Hi all - a quick TK730 problem:

I am having problems with my 730 taking 158.805. The software takes it, but I also get a continuous tone when I turn to the channel on my radio. It's a key side channel around here, and I would like to get it fixed.

The radio was gotten from eBay and was one of the Canadian narrow/wide band ones that are currently selling. Other than the above problem, I'm thrilled with the radio.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

The low split 730's will do 136 to 156, no more, no less.

But I've got other 158 and 159 mhz tx channels in it, and they work without a problem.

That's why I'm confused. It's a simplex channel, if that might make any difference. The PL is the same as the other 15 channels in it's zone.

I ran into this problem before and I found out that I had to use the codeplug that was in the radio for the original programming and then I was able to over come the issue.

For some reason just building your own codeplug and programming it into the radio caused some problems. Also check the radio by programming the radio with 0 instead of 5 and see if it takes it and acts funny then. If it stills does then I may venture to say that the radio may have issues with that channel position.
