Python is pretty easy to learn. Luckily most of the Yaesu rigs use the same clone protocol, so you shouldn't have to write this. You will however have to decode the memory map. This is more of a puzzle than a coding challenge--the memory map syntax is modeled after a c-struct and very simple to learn.

Thanks,

I'll try to contact Dan Smith and maybe with him and your help I'll be able to write such a module. I have no prior knowledge in python, though...

Every model is different, usually. You can try attaching your FT-1900R and downloading with the FT-1802M driver. If any errors are reported or the channel data doesn't match what is in the radio, a new radio driver will need to be written. For this I would need to have the radio. Typically radios are loaned to developers, but in your case international shipping makes this impractical.

Hi,

I saw you did the FT1802 modules.

I have a Yaesu FT-1900R transceiver. Can I program it with CHIRP?

How difficult it is to write another module in Chirp for it?

Thanks, Ran
