This is accessed by right- clicking on the memory and choosing "Calculate Offset...".

[chirp_devel] [PATCH 0 of 2 ] Add cross dtcs support
by Marco Filippi IZ3GME 22 May '12

22 May '12

This patches add the long waited support for cross dtcs in UI and FT857 Still missing the related CSV format changes to have time to test everything before to make it Please people out there with an FT857, test tones carefully as in the big number of possible combinations it's not so difficult i've missed something

[chirp_devel] VX2r stuff
by Andrew Errington 21 May '12

21 May '12

Hi everyone, So far I have these fields decoding successfully: # mode # duplex # freq # power # tmode # name # offset I'm a little worried because when I change a single property of a single memory I get a large number of changes in the memory file. For example, if I change only one channel from high power to low power I get about 37 bytes affected. I expected to see only two or three (the byte that records the power level, and the checksum). 'tune_step' might be working, but I'm not sure, and I need to work on 'tone' and 'dcs'. I think I should have started with the VX3 code instead of VX7, but I just copy stuff from VX3 anyway. I am focusing on decoding the memory image. I haven't done anything to the code that writes a modified memory image. Finally, I seem to have a problem where occasionally I get or lose a null byte at the beginning of the file, which of course messes up the byte count. I think I should get "\x00AHN015" but sometimes I just get "AHN015". That's all for now. I guess there won't be a patch as the VX2r is a new program file. I'll send the whole thing when I'm done, or I can send the current horribly broken mess to anyone who wants to look at it. 73, Andrew ZL3AME

[chirp_devel] New user here - TS-2000 support
by Tom Wilson 14 May '12

14 May '12

Hi, all. I recently discovered Chirp, and I am hoping to be able to customize it to work with my Kenwood TS-2000. After writing a programmer for the TS-2000 in C#, I am starting to love Kenwood's communication protocol. There's no "memory dump" programming method here; the radio actually validates input and uses an actual command/response system for programming the machine. The nice part is that you can program just what you need: setting one menu change or one memory slot is a cinch. On my Yaesus, it was all or nothing... on this rig, changing the PL tone of one channel without affecting anything else is simple. So here's my situation: I am an experienced programmer. You talk to me about technical stuff and I follow right along. I've already written a programmer for the TS2K, even though it doesn't have much of a UI. However, I don't know Python - at all. I do know c and its descendants (C++, C#, Java, etc), VB (both VBA/VBScript and .Net), and enough php to get by... but I've never set up a Python dev environment. So is there a site where I can get the whirlwind tour on setting up a Windows box to use Python? Also, which source control tool will I need for downloading from the repository? Thanks for your help -Tom -- Tom Wilson wilsontp(a)gmail.com (619)940-6311 KI6ABZ

[chirp_devel] [PATCH 0 of 1 ] 857 cross tones fix
by Marco Filippi IZ3GME 14 May '12

14 May '12

Waiting for the cross dtcs I fixed the cross tones usage now that I fully understand ctone and rtone fields thanks to Dan's infos http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/DevelopersToneModes I guess cross dtcs but I'll test it only after having implemented it

[chirp_devel] VX-7r: power levels for 1.25m band
by David Griffith 10 May '12

10 May '12

The Yaesu VX-7r supports L1 and L2 power settings for the 1.25m, but for some reason Chirp will not accept L2 for that band. Looking at the code in chirp/vx7.py I see where the check is made and L2 should be accepted. I cannot figure out why this check refuses to accept L2. The workaround is to manually reset the power level to L2 and re-save. Has anyone else tried to fix this? Slightly related to this problem, one can modify the VX-7r to boost the transmit power for the 1.25m band. This is done by entering the factory setup mode. Looking again at chirp/vx7.py, I see statements that look like this: chirp_common.PowerLevel("L2", watts=0.30) What does that "watts=0.30" mean for the rest of Chirp? Will that interfere with the power mod mentioned above? -- David Griffith dave(a)661.org
