Saw this on Facebook:
anybody that has a Yaesu FT 70, do not use chirp! it still has some significant errors and limitations. I programmed my new radio two weeks ago and people were telling me I was off frequency even though the display was spot on. Also a lot of the features like memory bank, dual watch, others would not work, like they are blocked out. On recommendation of somebody here, I tried Yaesu free adms 10 and downloaded what I had in my radio to their software. Lo and behold, about half the frequencies were messed up. Instead of 146.52 it was 146.5225. Also many of the PL tones were messed up. Just a word of caution while chirp is an awesome popular free tool, it’s open source and developers needs time to get it to work on new radios.
