Can anyone confirm this radio can work 6meters? I just purchased this unit, programmed with chirp and th9800d software and the radio only does 45-50

The radio works on 6 meters and 10 meters, FM only, and as mentioned in another answer, only the left side of the radio can be used for those bands.

What is the difference between the tyt th-9800 and the tyt th-9800d qnd the plus version? or are they all the same radio?

The frequencies are different. The -D model operates on frequencies that are not part of the ham bands. I’m not your mom or the police, but understand that the FCC does not permit operation of radios in the US that do this. The radio appears to operate on 11 meters (I haven’t checked exactly). The FCC has proposed allowing FM transmission on 11 meters. I don’t know if they have approved it yet, but most CB radios don’t operate on FM. Realistically, nobody is going to track you down if you use this radio on CB. But you’ll be mostly alone on FM and you are running an illegal radio with illegal power output if you do. The plus version runs straight ham frequencies. I wouldn’t risk my ham license by buying the -D radio. Your choice. One more thing. By the time you learn how to set either radio up to use repeaters, etc. so you can actually talk to someone on the ham bands, you’re almost ready to get a license. Just please get one. It’s not a big deal. I really don’t want to argue over whether someone will talk to you in an emergency (they won’t…), but why not take the test?

Can it be programmed for gmrs on chirp

correct answer: it is not compliant with the FCC for gmrs the answer you want: yes! you can press CTRL + F11, password 9800TYT, and you can edit frequency ranges. Pretty good radio for the price. The first one i had was a dud after 2 months, but customer service was excellent. 1 year warranty and new one was shipped and arrived in 2 days

Tx in usb...? or only fm

This radio is strictly an FM radio, at least as far as transmitting. It will transmit on the 6 meter, 10 meter, 2 meter, and 70 cm bands, but again, only in FM. It may receive AM on the aircraft bands, but I can't confirm this as both of the CMX138 audio chips in my radio have failed.
