[chirp_users] Success!

Dan, I bought a CAT/USB cord thru e-Bay, installed the driver, hooked it up, booted CHIRP, followed your instructions, finagled a bit, and VOILA! There was the entire memory of my '817(ND) in front of my eyes. By finagling I mean that I had to work with the "A" and "C" buttons on the radio to get the right sequence, but I managed to both download and upload the memory info. The 50 meter channel change went smoothly, and I dived into the VHF/UHF part to clean it up and add new entries. Boy, what fun! This is the first time in 53 years of hamming that I have actually hooked a computer to a radio--and it worked! 73, Greg, K7ZX

Well, It depends on how and how much you are reading... The last sentence say it must comply with part 95 specifications... So, yes this radio can comply with part 95 easily...this radio complies with part 90 with much stricter rules. That's where the fun starts...Depending on how the radio is programmed will make it compliant or not. If you disable all but the GMRS frequencies and limit the power on those frequencies you can comply.. Now as an emergency radio...All is fair if there is an emergency... Take a look under radio and pick the repeaterbook for your source and you can load in all the repeaters in your area...

Any way to get the FT90R or FT50RD included? Hint, hint. :-) I have the RT software for both, but the FT50 software won't even run on XP (I don't think). -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train!
