I would like to request a SDCard BACKUP.dat file for FTM-500. ADMS software requires a read from the radio or BACKUP.dat file to function. I don't have a radio. Thinking of starting a project to add FTM-500 to chirp and need an image to evaluate.
Thanks, Fred

If no one provides one soon, I'll be ordering an FTM-500 on Dec 27, and should have it up and running within a few weeks of that. I can create a backup file and send it to you.

I just bought an FTM-500D. I can create an image next week after I get it open.

Fred, is next week ok? If you're wanting to start on the FTM-500 driver this week, I can go open the box up and make an image for you today. Otherwise I'll just do it next week if you're not in a hurry.
I am VERY interested in helping adding FTM-500 support to Chirp. So let me know if you'd like an image today.

Hi Fred,
I hope you're doing well!
I finally got my new FTM-500 out. I inserted a new 32 gb microSD card, turned the radio on, added my call sign at the initial screen, then I formatted the card. I then did a backup of ALL settings to the microSD card.
I hadn't done any changes or added any memories or anything. Just stock from the factory.
After doing the backup there were a number of directories and files in the root of the microSD card. I'm not 100% sure which file is the backup image, but I think it is the CLNFTM500D.dat file that I've attached to this email.
Let me know if you'd like me to get you anything else.
I'm not sure if there's a firmware update available or not. Let me know if you'd like me to send you a backup after doing the firmware upgrade.
I'd love to get FTM-500 supported in Chirp. Let me know if I can help in any way.
Best,
Dave Boucha

That is indeed the correct file for a complete backup. There is a firmware update, but it may have no effect on the memory map, ADMS has not been updated.
HRO has FTM500 stock now, ordered one.
Thank you for your help. Fred
