I don't memorise frequencies.
In my radios, I display the name of the city or the name of the owning club.
Frequencies are only for simplex.

One thing to mention. Although naming repeaters and commonly used
frequencies can be handy, I have found that most all hams memorize
frequencies. So even though I made up a naming convention for my radios so
I would quickly know which repeater I was tuned to, I think it's better to
display frequenc
My reply was to simply allow for a named channel, to also display the
frequency for that named channel on the line below it. I never said to use it
that way. If one has upwards of say, 100 channels and names, unless you’ve got
a photographic memory, that’s gonna be a bit tough to learn and ass
If the scan stops on an active channel, the other vfo won’t change to match.
Things will very rapidly get out of sync. Trust me, you will learn very rapidly
which frequency goes with each repeater, or what name goes with what frequency
, etc. I would just set up your radio with the preference of
You say, "don't use both a and b to monitor 1 channel". I assume that
means that if I display the name on the top line (a) and the frequency
on the bottom line (b), I can only listen to one channel. How about
this. Lets say lines 1 and 2 on CHIRP are set to monitor repeaters x
and y in Falmo
Use 2 radios, or don’t use both a and b to monitor 1 channel. After a while,
you should be able to memorize which is which. On channels I use quite
frequently, I name it the frequency. On less used channels, I name it either
the call sign of the owner or the location of the repeater. After a whi
I've been using Baofengs for a year now. I have a UV-5RD+, a BF-F9 V2+,
and a UV-XR. Since I live on an island in the Atlantic, and my contact
with North America is through two repeaters on Cape Cod, I love the dual
watch feature. If I program the radio to display the name on the first
line

Well,
When I want names, I do go to 21, not 22. Hit menu again, that allows for
adjustment from freq, channel, name. I then select which of the three I want,
then hit menu again to confirm, done. If you’ve installed names for all your
frequencies, that process should do it for you.
Second, I d
Are you importing a file to the radio or downloading from the radio, modifying
the file, then writing back to the radio?

It sounds like you have done your work with CHIRP fine.
Consult your owner's manual and find the section about displaying either
1)channel number, 2) frequency, or 3) channel name.
If you download from radio to CHIRP and see the names, they are there.
Just find the owner's manual. It will tell
I do. When I clone to my computer all of the names are shown. For some
reason when I import back to the radio, only the frequency shows. No name.
Not sure what step I am missing.

How do I switch my Baofeng PC03 from frequency to name? When I go to 21 and
22 for the name, it still only shows frequencies.
