Hi there,
I saw that there's a request in for support for the newer Baofeng HT's already, including the UV17 Pro GPS. I was wondering if anyone has started working on integrating that into Chirp? If so, I'd be happy to help. If not, I might take a stab at it myself.
I've not worked on the Chirp codebase before or trying to figure out the programming instructions for a radio, but I'm a developer, have some python experience, and a radio I'd like to use Chirp with!
(I see the online guides for getting started with support for a new radio, this is just really asking if anyone's already working on it.)
Thanks Matthew
I have been able to successfully download and save a CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) file from the radio from the UV-17 Pro GPS. Unfortunately I have not been able to crack how the frequencies are stored or find someone else that could crack it for me.
