I got the chirp.py command figured out and I'm dumping memory, which gets me pretty far. For upload to the radio, though, I'm stuck.
When downloading, the "Last addr" is 03b0. If I upload the range from 0x0000 to 0x03B0, the progress indicator on the radio gets stuck at half way and it never leaves "CL IN". I tried a binary search on the size, and it seems to want somewhere around 0x600 to get to full on the progress bar, but right around there it will sometimes CL ERR and sometimes get stuck.
Anybody with experience on ICOMs have some idea what's going on here?

Hey guys, I'm looking around for software to program my IC-T7H, and I came across CHIRP. By tweaking the _model line for the IC-Q7A, I got frequencies to upload, but everything else looks scrambled. I'm a Python dev myself, so I figured I'd jump in and try to contribute here. From reading the code, I understand that what I get back from the ICOM unit is a memory dump. What's the best way to go about reading through the dump and figuring out where things go? Is there a flag I can use to stash it in a file and hit it with a hex editor?
