The challenge, in my opinion, is that not only is it changing from Python 2 to Python 3, but it is changing from gtk to wxPython, because gtk also had some incompatible change.

Hey all,
I don't mean to sound like a know it all; I'm pretty sure I know very little. It looks like the project is still active, and folks are contributing. A local used it to load up my radio yesterday, I'm new-ish to the area and still had the old repeaters programmed in. Pretty sure my little Baofeng can't reach half way across the country, to the old repeaters. *sigh*
What's the challenge with moving to Python 3? What is holding things at Python 2?

Hey Joe,
Is the "not complete" due to lack of time, or...? I can do some Python, if that helps.

There is a python 3 branch that fixes those kinds of errors. It is not complete, however.

I'm getting a lot of syntax errors on "except Exception, e:" and issues
with
print statements. Running Python 3.10 on Void Linux.
Thanks!
