#116: Frequencies are not saved correctly --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: psharmor@… | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Functionality Milestone: | Component: Memory Editor Version: | Keywords: frequency wouxun Platform: Linux | --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reading from my Wouxun KG-UVD1P and KG-UV2D, some of the frequencies are changed, ie: APRS Simplex 144.39000 becomes 144.389999. When manually changed, after save / close / load, it reverts to the incorrect freq again. Version is most recent daily, but this has exhibited since 0.1.11. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/116> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

#124: VX-8R upload displays in Japanese characters on radio screen ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: jp.bernier@… | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Functionality Milestone: | Component: Import/Export Version: 0.1.10 | Keywords: Japanese Characters Platform: Windows | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Uploaded CHIRP image to Yaesu VX-8R. Memory slots and banks previously filled manually (not with CHIRP) are fine (120 of them), and unaffected. However, all memory slots filled with the CHIRP program (added about 80 or so new channels) display in Japanese characters (and some ASCII) on the Yaesu screen. Also, the upload put all newly added memory slots (on PC side) into one memory slot in the radio. I'm not sure how that is even possible, but it is. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/124> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

Greetings, A new daily build of CHIRP is available. This includes changes made directly to the tree yesterday, and may include additional features, bug fixes, and/or bugs. If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-07272011/ A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: changeset: 1095:a477e4b6aed1 tag: tip user: Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com> date: Tue Jul 26 11:36:38 2011 -0700 files: chirp/wouxun.py description: [uv3r] Be more conservative in our determination of what is a blank memory Instead of checking that the first eight bytes, just checking the first byte (which is part of the frequency) should be enough. Apparently the radio does not clear much other than the frequency when deleting.

It seems that WinXP wants the "CustomFilter" to have the default, and Filter[] to have a list of other filter types, not including the default. Win Vista/7 seem to want the default in the Filter[] list as well. This makes the code do the right thing on the right platform. changeset: 1093:fdd4651d3c87 user: Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com> date: Mon Jul 25 14:32:56 2011 -0700 files: chirp/icw32.py description: [w32] Explicitly cancel scan behavior when setting a memory Not sure why, but a newer model W32 is entering scan mode after being programmed with CHIRP. In order to either defeat the behavior that is being caused by something out of our control, or determine if it's something caused by chirp, this patch clears those bits. So, if you handle an image but don't make any memory changes, it will leave the scan bits alone. However, if you do, it will cancel any scans that are enabled and echo something to the debug log. Later, if we support generic radio settings, these can be enabled and disabled by the user. changeset: 1092:52eab427c4a3 user: Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com> date: Mon Jul 25 09:36:07 2011 -0700 files: tests/images/uv3r.img description: [uv3r] Add tests for uv3r changeset: 1091:6af090653007 user: Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com> date: Mon Jul 25 09:35:36 2011 -0700 files: chirp/directory.py chirp/wouxun.py description: [uv3r] Add Baofeng UV-3R support

[chirp_users] Chirp software working fine with Baofeng UV-3 R HT
by Ken Simpson, W8EK 26 Jul '11

26 Jul '11

I downloaded the new "daily build" of CHIRP software, installed it, and tried it with the Baofeng UV-3 R HT. I transfered the contents of the HT to the software, and all worked fine. I added a few memory channels, changed some things in others, and then loaded it back to the HT. All seems to be working fine. Thanks, Dan, for doing this. 73, Ken, W8EK Ken Simpson E-mail to W8EK(a)FLHam.net or W8EK(a)arrl.net Voice Phone (352) 732-8400

#106: Open saved files with in CHIRP -----------------------------------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: Dan Robertson <dan.my.studio@…> | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Functionality Milestone: | Component: Import/Export Version: 0.1.11 | Keywords: Platform: Windows | -----------------------------------------------------+---------------------- I am finding that when I go to Open on the File menu, my files don't appear. Example: I saved an IMG of my radio to my desktop. Then I go to File>Open Navigate in the explorer window to desktop, Verify it is looking for .IMG files and none appear. I can, however, double click on the file that is on the desktop and tell it to open in CHIRP and it does. Is this something that needs attention or am I missing some important set up or step? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/106> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development
