[chirp_users] Elecraft Support
by Jon Moody 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

I am almost afraid to ask but looking through the previous years mailing lists... I didn't see any discussion of this. Also looking at the roadmap did not see any mention either. So does Chirp have any plans on supporting the Elecraft products in the future ? Such as K3, KX3 or K2 ? -- Thanks Jon

Tnx. That was nice but got it going. Jim- kc9hi knew the fix. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package needed to be loaded. Some XP versions don't have it. Once it was installed, I launched CHIRP again and it worked fine.

[chirp_users] New Daily Build
by Build System 23 Mar '13

23 Mar '13

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-20130323 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #180 [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] [vx510] Partial driver for Vertex VX-510. #719 I lost interest in finishing support for this radio, but anyone is welcome to complete this driver if they want. Download and decode works, apart from a stray byte at 0xC that I haven't found a good way to handle. It might be a checksum, but I haven't determined the algorithm to check it. Upload is untested and set_memory() is unimplemented. Nearly every byte of the img is decoded, so this shouldn't be very difficult to complete if interested. [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] bitwise: allow #seek in hex (only dec was supported). #715

I have had a problem with a new uv-5r. I have programmed two other uv-5r radios in the past with no problems at all but this new one gives me a warning as follows---"Upload finished, but the 'Other Settings' could not be sent because the firmware version of the image does not match that of the radio" Can you help? Thanks. Hap Hatch k6hap
