#120: problem exporting on IC-W32A ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: kb3mun | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Functionality Milestone: | Component: Import/Export Version: (tip) | Keywords: export, W32A, no CSV, field not mutable Platform: Windows | ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Using Chirp daily 06092011 on Win7. I can 'Download from radio' when connected to an IC-W32A. I can save the image file successfully. However when I try to export the file, I observe two problems. A) Only export to CHIRP format is available; the CSV export target is absent. Is this by design? B) I am presented with an error dialog with this message "There was an error during export: Field %s is not mutable on this memory.". This occurs after I have been presented with the SaveAs dialog and just after pressing OK on the Column Selection dialog. BTW, I get expected behavior on Chirp v0.1.11 on Win7. Expected behavior is: A) I have both export formats: CHIRP and CSV. B) The image data is exported without an error dialog. There is the type of expected content in both types of export formatted files. 73 de Daniel KB3MUN -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/120> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

#125: Importing from VX7 to VX3 makes me sad -------------------+-------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: Zero | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Functionality Milestone: | Component: Memory Editor Version: | Keywords: Platform: Linux | -------------------+-------------------------------------------------------- It would seem that when a memory label is >6 characters (the vx3's limit) that it is simply not imported. A better behavior would be to simply truncate the label if the target radio can't hold all the characters. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/125> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

[chirp_users] [CHIRP] #129: FT-7900 Problem editing certian freq.

#129: FT-7900 Problem editing certian freq. -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: mike@… | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Stability Milestone: | Component: Memory Editor Version: 0.1.11 | Keywords: Platform: Windows | -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- I downloaded from the radio. After downloading all of the freq. I manually programmed, any freq. with 3 numbers after the decimal had a "4" at the beginning and a "2" in between the 2 and 4 number after the decimal. When trying to make changes to any of those, it give you an error message, "Freq. out of range" then when you click the error message, it deletes the entry. Here is an example of what it looks like after downloading from my radio: My Radio reads: 147.675 CHIRP Reads: 4147.6725 if I change it from 4147.6725 in chirp to 147.675 and then upload it back into the radio it looks like this: My Radio Reads: 147.670 It does the same with 440 as well. I have tried everything with no luck. 73s KC0LBY -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/129> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

*I have successfully imported the memories and exported the moved around ones back, but the hyper memories are gone (where do you change them in Chirp?) and only the left side seems to have the memories the right side only channel 1 and the local 2M repeater is in the VFO. * *Huh? **Alvin Koffman * *Indiana 1851, Preamble * *We, the People of the State of Indiana , grateful to Almighty God for the free exercise of the right to choose our form of government. *
