vertex programing

[satboy]

I have 2 vertex standard radios one is vx-132 and the other is vx-160 I'm trying to program 2 of the frequencies from the 132 to the 160 but seem to be having trouble I can transmit from the 132 and receive on the 160 but I cant transmit from the 160 to 132 I'm real green when It come to this stuff and maybe just have some setting that are wrong..I would really appreciate any advice from anyone...

Thank You

My guess would be that it has something to do with CTCSS/DCS encoding on the VX132. With the transmit frequency of the VX132 programmed into the VX160 (and no CTCSS/DCS code programmed) you would be able to receive the transmission from the VX132, but without the CTCSS/DCS programmed into the VX160 it would not be able to open the squelch of the VX132 so it could receive the transmission from the VX160. You'll need to search around and see if you can find out what type/tone is programmed into the VX132 and program the same type/tone into the VX160.
