CoST radio question

Recommended Posts

I have searched every nook and cranny of the AMS forums to find an answer to this question, to no avail. I know UFS has that weird Chirp program on their radios, does CoST have anything like that? By 'like that', I mean anything that needs to be programmed into the radio PRIOR to the game. I assumed since there wasn't any post concerning this issue that the answer is no, but I wanted to be sure. The last thing I want is to show up to an OP only to find I don't have the right radio program on my Baofeng.

the program "chirp" is a computer-based program, meaning it will not be loaded onto the radio. The program is used to ease the process of loading freqs into a large number of radios, or a small batch, as well as having a quick backup to load radios that have dropped their previously loaded freqs. most people on the CoST side of the house get together within squads before start-ex and manually program their radios to the respective freqs, so not having this program on your computer is not an issue.

CoST is the rebel faction, which means they didn't have their own military prior to the start of the conflict, and are all-around going to be less well-organized than the UFS.  So maybe not having a radio matrix laid out ahead of time is part of the realism???
