[chirp_users] How do I run Chirp on a Mac?
by John M. Prosser 13 Nov '13

13 Nov '13

Using Intel-based Mac mini, OS 10.6.8. I have followed the directions as well as I could to make a USB drive, but can't see how to use it. Lots of files on the drive, but nothing jumps out at me as a startup file. I hope some of the experts on this list can tell me where I am going wrong. Morris KB6QR

[chirp_users] Radio disabled
by Sherrill Williams 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi, I am trying to program a Baofeng UV-5R. I have uploaded a data sheet from the radio, imported 3 repeater stations from the repeater book and then uploaded to the radio. Now the radio will not allow the a/b switch, the menu switch and the vfo/mr switch to work and will not transmit the offset freq, Also (assuming that I can get the radio to work again) how do I import additional stations to the radio without overwriting the ones already there? Thanks for any help available

from what i saw on eBay, the Baofeng 888S is also UHF only and not a dual bander *[image: http://www.cwops.org/images/cqcani.gif]* *73,* *Izzy 4X1UF* *Extra Class, Active ham since October 1964, QCWA # 35058, member of SKCC, * *mail: ham.4x1uf(a)gmail.com <ham.4x1uf(a)gmail.com>, Skype: ham4x1uf* On Mon, Nov 11, 2013 at 12:47 AM, < chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> wrote: > Send chirp_users mailing list submissions to > chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > chirp_users-owner(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of chirp_users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

[chirp_users] Wouxun KG-UVD1P Extended Coverage
by Phil - w2lie 08 Nov '13

08 Nov '13

Hi All, I am not sure if this would be a bug, feature request, or something that is already fixed, so that is why I am starting my search with an e-mail to the group. I have a UVD1P that I am programming for a client. Using Chrip, I already extended the Rx side of the radio up to 490Mhz because he needs to receive up in the 480Mhz part of the band. That mod seems to have worked as I can go into the VFO and add the frequency in by hand. (*disclaimer, I didn't see if it was actually receiving anything up there yet). The problem is, when I try and program the extended frequencies in with Chirp, I get a software error stating that the channels that are above 479Mhz are out of range for this radio. True, on the default settings they are out of range, but after doing the software mod via chirp, they are no longer out of range. Is there anyway in Chirp to program these extended frequencies? Has it been included in the latest daily build and I just missed something? I figured I would ask here before I submitted a request via the bug tracker / issue / feature request page. 73 Phil / w2lie

[chirp_users] chirp and BAOJIE BJ-UV55
by Tony Cratz 08 Nov '13

Hello, Before I try to see if Chirp can program my new Baojie BJ-UV55 I thought I would ask if anyone has been able to program one? I don't see it listed as a supported radio, I have heard that it is very much like the Baofeng radios. Tony
