[chirp_users] more help with Mac OS

I'm sure that you're busy with d-rats and getting ready for Dayton, but I finally got back to working on getting Chirp working now that I have a need to move data from an ic-92 to an ic-91 :-) I snagged the source to 0.1.9 final and tried it both with my fink install and my darwin ports install. neither works, but they do both fail with the exact same error when I pick "Radio -> connect to an ic9x": a.show() Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/fligor/bin/chirp-0.1.9/chirpui/mainapp.py", line 430, in mh self.do_open9x(ic9x.IC9xRadioA) File "/Users/fligor/bin/chirp-0.1.9/chirpui/mainapp.py", line 123, in do_open9x rtype="ic9x") File "/Users/fligor/bin/chirp-0.1.9/chirpui/clone.py", line 70, in __init__ self.port = miscwidgets.make_choice(ports, True, ports[0]) IndexError: list index out of range I never get the dialog box that lets you choose your radio settings. I tried A B and B B, neither worked, and I did make sure the radio's main was on the "B" side. I even get the same message with the Apple's built in python using export PYTHONPATH=/opt/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages which worked for another user. It's good that they all fail the same way, it's annoying that they all fail :-) You'd previously thought you knew what this was and had planned on fixing it, I just got side tracked and never checked. Something about not knowing about a serial port and getting confused. as a work around, is there a config file I can stash somewhere that fills it in about the serial port to get me going? I couldn't find anything on the config file format at the wiki so that I could just make my own. Let me know if you also want to see this on trac as well. thanks, -debbie, N9DN

#58: support for 92ad ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: w1gri@… | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Functionality Milestone: | Component: IC-91/92 Version: | Keywords: Platform: Windows | ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Site says it supports 92AD. Can't find radio in list. Attempt to read it fails with every setting I could find. Is there another version somewhere? Is there some setting that I should use with the 92AD?

[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.10 - RELEASE
by Dan Smith 18 Jun '10

18 Jun '10

Hi all, I just posted the official 0.1.10 release...finally! It was more than a year between 0.1.9 and 0.1.0, which is far, far too long. I'll try to make sure not to let it get that out of hand in the future. Not many changes from the previous beta, but they are: - Make CSV files not have a length limit on alpha names - Add basic Kenwood TH-D7 support (may work for the D700, not sure) - Fix a bug in the import process if using a radio without bank support - Changed the "Connect to..." menu item name and unify the code paths for all "connected-mode" radios I'll be updating the website soon. Until then, you can get the official release here: http://chirp.danplanet.com/download/ With this release out the door, I hope to start working on adding support for more radio models. Let me know if you have a suggestion (and might be willing to part with one for a couple of weeks). Thanks! -- Dan Smith dsmith#danplanet.com, s/#/@/ www.danplanet.com KK7DS

[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.10b11
by Dan Smith 15 Jun '10

15 Jun '10

Okay folks, Hopefully this is the final beta of 0.1.10. A couple of fixes and additions: - Fix pathing issue that prevents us from running on Windows Vista and 7 - Fix ic9x connection - Add basic Yaesu VX-8R support - Add per-radio name filtering so that the UI properly reflects what it is going to write into the radio (such as 8-char uppercase on ID-880) If I don't hear anything soon, I'll call this final and post it. If you can break it, speak now! :) -- Dan Smith dsmith#danplanet.com, s/#/@/ www.danplanet.com KK7DS

Hi all, Well, I broke something with a last minute typo in 0.1.10b9 for the id880 driver, so I've posted another beta today with a few more things: - Fix ID880 memory saving - Fix SKIP and P.SKIP support in ID880 - Add ID880 bank name support Hopefully this will be a "release candidate".

Some are OK, but most are set to "P" where the were blank in the original. If I edit the SKIP field in CHIRP the changes do not "stick". If you can't replicate it let me know and I will attach some data files & logs. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/55> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.10b9
by Dan Smith 08 Jun '10

08 Jun '10

Hi all, It has been quite a while since the last beta of CHIRP and an obscene amount of time since the last official release! I just posted 0.1.10b9 with the following changes: - Fix setting of tone mode on id880 - Fix hosing the current set of memories after a CSV export - Fix long name support in CSV files - Fix 6.25-step frequencies on id880 and implement tuning step support - Add human-readable names for radios - Add basic Yaesu VX-7R support We need to get an official release out as soon as possible as it has been more than a year since the last one! If people could please give this a thorough beating, I would appreciate the feedback so we can get 0.1.10 final posted. The VX-7 driver may not be perfect, but it seems to work for me. You have to follow the typical clone procedure that you're probably used to using with other programs, of course. Please, let me know if this is ready for prime time! Thanks! -- Dan Smith dsmith#danplanet.com, s/#/@/ www.danplanet.com KK7DS

#56: ID-880 odd split not working ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: dsmith@… | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Stability Milestone: | Component: Memory Editor Version: | Keywords: Platform: Linux | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- From Kenny: So in memory #6, I have the DStar repeater for GoldMnt programmed. Using the Icom provided software, I correctly programmed it to 449.5625. (http://www.wd7str.org/) When I started, I had Chirp read in my existing memories and it changed the frequency to 1666.37000. When I corrected the frequency to 449.5625 and wrote it back out, the ID880 gets upsets and resets everything. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/56> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development
