[chirp_users] icom IC-80AD future support?
by William Arcand 08 Aug '12

08 Aug '12

Greetings, Looking around at the support new radio section of your website I see that the icom ic-80AD was added to the list back in Sept 2011. I was wondering if any progress was made to support the radio, or if there are plans to support the radio. Any insight you could provide would be appreciated. 73 Bill W1WRA

[chirp_users] Exporting D72 memories never finishes
by Sander Pool 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

Hi, I did some editing of my D72 memory, unplugged the radio and attempted to export the stations to csv so I can re-import into my D710. The problem is that the 'Preparing memory list' phase never ends. This is on an i7 based laptop so it shouldn't be a performance issue. I have perhaps 100 of the 1000 memories set, spread over the 10 banks. Any ideas? 73, Sander W1SOP

[chirp_users] Fwd: Fedora Linux RPMs for the latest chirp-daily build now available
by Mike Heitmann 31 May '12

31 May '12

All, Fedora Linux RPMs for the latest chirp-daily build are now available in the KK7DS Ham-Apps yum repository. To add the repository as a software source, please follow these instructions: http://www.d-rats.com/component/content/article/30-d-rats-yum-repository/ I know it says d-rats, the chirp files are in the same repository. After setting up the repository, open the "Add/Remove Software" tool and go to "software sources" under the system menu. Make sure the "KK7DS Ham Apps Beta Software" line is checked (enabled). For some reason, the Fedora package manager likes the beta versions better that the daily builds, so you may not see the daily release in the list the first time you update. If you don''t see it, open a terminal window and enter: yum update chirp-daily_20120531 Or: yum update chirp-daily_20120531-1.fc16 That should install the latest daily build. For those who don''t wish to use the repository but still want the RPM (binary or source), please look here: http://ham.n0so.net/fileadmin/ham/apps/rpm/fedora/16/noarch/chirp-daily_201… http://ham.n0so.net/fileadmin/ham/apps/rpm/fedora/16/SRPMS/chirp-daily_2012… Fedora users who have upgraded to Fedora Core version 17 (fc17), Fedora Core version 17 RPMs for CHIRP and D-RATS may be found at: http://n0so.net/fileadmin/ham/apps/rpm/fedora/17/ Happy Testing, Mike, N0SO

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-20120531 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #86 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] [uv5r] Extend upper UHF range to 512MHz The UV5R community claims the radio can (at least) receive this high without any trouble and so we should support it, as long as the radio can tune there. Fixes #192

Re: [chirp_users] Can't write FT-2800M
by José Luis Artuch 29 May '12

29 May '12

I suspect not, this interface does not work well with ft-2800m ... I make the following connections: RJ-12 connector (FT-2800M) TS connector 3.5 mm (interface for FTH-2009, FTL-2011, VX-200, etc.) Pin 1 PTT/CLONE <------------> Tip Pin 3 GND <--------------------> Sleeve It worked well to read but not to write. Reading http://www.g4hfq.co.uk/links.html and http://www.g4hfq.co.uk/download/g4tic.pdf, I think the problem may be in the interface. Bas Helman (G4TIC) says "... So far I have tried three circuits one with no success another with partial success (it communicated in one direction only) and the one documented here with complete success. ...". Maybe I should build the interface G4TIC suggests to try again. Thank you Dan !!

[chirp_users] Can't write FT-2800M
by José Luis Artuch 29 May '12

29 May '12

Hello !! I use Debian 6 (squeeze) and I'm trying to program a Yaesu FT-2800M. I read it, but when I try to write it, this tells me "ERR 15". I have done several tests (including Windows XP). I use the same interface with which I program the handys FTH-2009 and VX-200. Can anyone help me ?. Thank you very much !! zenbaki LU6ENY
