[SMCARA] UV-5R programming

Howdy all,

While my Wouxun HT is down I thought I'd try using my Baofeng UV-5R HT with
the repeater. I use the CHIRP software so programming is easy but I seem to
be missing something. I can receive fine but I can't hit the repeater, I'm
hoping that someone else's eyes might catch my mistake so I can get back on
the air. When I key the PTT I don't get the beep from the repeater. I'm
going to list the settings below that I get on the CHIRP software, some are
user defined and some are default. Any help or suggestions would be
appreciated. (I know, I know... stop using a cheap Chinese HT...)

Settings:
Frequency : 146.640000
Name : K3HKI
Tone Mode : Tone
Tone : 146.2
ToneSql : 88.5 (default)
Cross Mode : Tone-> Tone (default)
DTCS Code : 23 (default)
RX DTCS Code : 23 (default)
DTCS Pol : NN (default)
Duplex : - (negative)
Offset : 0.600000
Mode : FM
Power : High
Skip : (blank - default)
BCL : (enabled box not checked - default)

Thanks!
