How can I get my 2-way radio to work with a repeater?
I bought two Midland GXT-720 2-way radios. It has a 30 mile range on High Power setting. I obtain the FCC license and joined a local group in my city, and they have very powerful repeater. I have the right Frequency and CTCSS code, but I cannot transmit over the repeater. I am a couple of miles away from the mountain the repeater is at, but I can hear people from cities several miles away, transmitting. I have two radios, same model, and both of them don’t work on the repeater. What can I do? Thanks.
You need to use duplex operation where you transmit on one frequency and receive on a second frequency. The following site explains the concept:
http://www.gmrs.org/how_twoway_radio_works.htm
I don’t see that capability shown in the GXT-720 manual:
http://www.midland2way.com/v/PDFS/GXT-720-manual.pdf
Since you have two radios, you can try out the concept while operating each one in simplex mode. Tune one radio to the repeater’s input frequency and set the correct CTCSS tone. Tune the other radio to the repeater’s output frequency and correct CTCSS tone (or turn the CTCSS tone off on this second radio). Transmit on the first radio and see if you hear yourself on the second radio.
You could try contacting Midland and ask them whether your radio can operate in duplex mode.
