PROGRAMMING
Q: I programmed a channel, but it won't save.
A: There are three steps to the process:
1) You must be in the VFO/Frequency mode
2) Display A (top display) must be selected.
3) Channel must be empty before programming frequency data.
(use menu 28 to delete a channel)
Q: How can I store a 7th digit of a frequency? xxx.xxx5
A: Change Step (Menu 1) to 2.5 kHz.
Enter the first 6 digits of the desired frequency, then use the
Up/Down arrow for the last .5 kHz.
Example: 462.7125 would be: 4 6 2 7 1 2 Up Arrow.
A tiny 5 will show to the right of the frequency display.
Q. Can I store different frequencies in A and B?
A. No. There is only a single bank of 128 channels (0-127)
The same frequencies show in both displays A and B.
You can however change the way they appear. (Menu 21 & 22)
The display options are Frequency, Channel Name or Channel Number.
Note: Manual programming of memory channels can Only be done while display A (top
display) is selected.
Q: What is the purpose of A and B if they are both the same?
A: Dual Receive. You can set each to a different preprogrammed channel.
With TDR (Menu 7) turned on, your radio will sample between the
two frequencies and stop on whichever one has activity.
Q. Can displays be synchronized to show Name in A and Freq in B?
A. No. Display A and B operate independently.

Questions and answers
Automatic number identification
Automatic Number Identification (ANI) on the Baofeng UV-82 works by transmitting an identification number when the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button is pressed or released. This ANI function can only be set using a computer. The PTT-ID parameter must be configured to BOT (beginning of transmission), EOT (end of transmission), or BOTH (both beginning and end). The ANI signal is sent using DTMF tones, which can be controlled using the DTMFST function to determine how they are heard through the speaker.
