it seems to go in .50 i need it to go .5 on the off set setting.:headbang
i have trouble shooted the manual pdf and paper manual. no luck.
 

.50 and .5 are the same thing. What are you trying to set an offset for? @ meter repeaters usually use a .600 +- offset and 70cm machines are normally a 1Mhz offset.

1.035 MHz it only does: 1.000 aND 1.050 and 1.100 etc
 
My other problem is, i have programmed all the repeaters i use on the left side, (but 440 not sure how to add them?) and on the right as soon as i try to store police freqs on the right it over writes the left ones too....now in the menu it shows: REPEATER -> REPEATER MODE -> CROSS BAND , LOCKED TX:A BAND , LOCKED RX:B BAND.

again the manual has been read thoroughly gives me no info :(
 
You're trying to get into .435 or .450 repeaters aren't you? You will have to program those using an "odd-split". Look for that term in the manual.
 
i also want to add that in the menu it skips a few items...... the menu is numbers 0-700 etc well some are missing?

(from a post "elsewhere") ... im trying to get 435 and 450 programmed, but because they have an ODD offset, when i go to the menu setting for offsets: it goes like this: 1.000mhz,1.050mhz,1.100mhz it doesnt do: 1.035mhz. it skips alot of numbers!...

i "think" you are adjusting the "tuning steps",..... not the repeater offset.

try adjusting menu item 400

you mean this: D710a offset help - YouTube

that doesnt do it. it skips in increments.
 
ok, that was my next question,..... if 401 was on (default) or off. it should be off

are you using the paper manual, or the CD?
the manual really sux, and the CD has much better info on it


only other thing i can add is, try a master CPU reset

good luck
