[chirp_devel] Beginner steps
by The Silver Fox 17 Oct '12

17 Oct '12

Hi, I hope it is ok to ask for help before I delve into the code. I installed the requisite software on a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 system and built the chirpw application. On first launch it complained about not finding chirp.png. I fixed that with a copy. However, now it launches a new window with Chirp in the menu line but it will not present any menu or respond as far as I can tell. In the background window it show registration for all of the radios it supports. This happened to me on first launch in Windows 7 but the second time I launched it gave me a pull down menu of radios. No such luck on Linux. I tried it with a live radio in the serial port and still nothing. Any advice? Thanks, Alan Hill Mobokits <http://mobokits.stormwarning.org/> http://mobokits.stormwarning.org/ UHFSDR Full Kit <http://wb6dhw.com/For_Sale.html> http://wb6dhw.com/For_Sale.html

[chirp_devel] [PATCH 0 of 2 ] Last patches of the series for feature #285
by Marco Filippi IZ3GME 12 Oct '12

12 Oct '12

One of this two is the actual implementation of the feature, the other one is mainly to correct bugs I introduced with a previous patch ... ok ok ... I know, I should stop writing code at late night ... Both patches have to be applied over all the others I sent yesterday 73 de IZ3GME Marco

Re: [chirp_devel] Chirp Development

> If you wouldn't mind some stupid startup questions I would like advice > on how to checkout code for read only under windows 7. Sure, but lets do this on the mailing list so everyone can see. I'm copying it now. You'll need mercurial, which is the source code management tool I use: http://mercurial.selenic.com/ There are some pointers to helpful documentation regarding how to use it effectively. http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Developers That page also provides a pointer to the repository. The folks on this list are also good resources. > Is there any thought about supporting USB since most newer radio > interfaces seem to prefer that approach. I'm not sure what you mean exactly. Almost all of the radios speak only RS-232, which means you need a USB-to-serial adapter to interface with them. Since these devices present themselves as virtual serial ports on all major operating systems, there is no additional work for CHIRP to do in order to support them. The one exception I know of is the Kenwood TH-D72, which has a USB port on the device itself. However, just like all the rest, it presents itself as a USB-to-serial device, and thus behaves like everything else. If I've completely missed your question, feel free to clarify :) Thanks! -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS

[chirp_devel] [PATCH 0 of 1 ] Wouxun radio frequency ranges decode
by Marco Filippi IZ3GME 12 Oct '12

This patch demonstrate the capability to decode the Wouxun radio frequency ranges. This is needed to implement Feature #285

[chirp_devel] [PATCH 0 of 2 ] Wouxun code reorganization
by Marco Filippi IZ3GME 12 Oct '12

12 Oct '12

The two patches gives wouxun code a better organisation (from my personal point of view). They should be free of any functional change. Everything is related to Feature #285 which will come shortly

[chirp_devel] [PATCH 0 of 1] [ftx800] Add FMN mode to FT-7800, FT-7900, and FT-8800. #291
by Tom Hayward 09 Oct '12

09 Oct '12

I was provided an FT-8800 image that shows FMN is the same bit as in the FT-8900, so I assumed that it was also the same bit in the FT-7800 and FT-7900 and I updated the common code for all of them to support FMN. I'm waiting for the reporter to test this with his FT-7900 and FT-8800, but if any of you have an FT-7x00, I'd appreciate if you would test this. http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/291 Tom KD7LXL
