[chirp_users] FYI BF-F8HP programming
by Forrest Joyner 11 Nov '14

11 Nov '14

Got mine in today and did a test download (1st!!) and then a test change and it uploaded perfectly. I’m using the daily build of Chirp and a Mac Mini and the same cable that I use with my UV-82 and UV-82C. No worries…. :) Forrest

For those of us, namely "me", who are new to Raspberry Pi, is there a list of hardware and software to use a Raspberry Pi for radio programming ? thanks Randall _____ From: chirp_users-bounces(a)intrepid.danplanet.com [mailto:chirp_users-bounces@intrepid.danplanet.com] On Behalf Of Bob Boehme Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2014 10:26 AM To: 'Discussion of CHIRP' Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Linux I totally agree… Raspberry pi the only way to fly.. works great.

[chirp_users] baofeng 82 squelch on uhf
by Stan M 11 Nov '14

11 Nov '14

Using chirp, my squelch setting may still read setting 1 but the actual setting moves from .2 micro volts to 1 micro volt making the squelch useless. any one have any ideas why, what I thought was in firmware is changing? When I reset the radio by the menue it resets back to default up load again, the squelch changes. Seems to only affect the UHF side.

[chirp_users] IC-208H programming question.
by Thomas Fancher 10 Nov '14

10 Nov '14

I just installed an IC-208H radio in my vehicle. I would like to use Chirp to program it by computer rather than by hand. It would be most helpful if someone has a prior download from an IC-208H that I could study. Even though I would be making changes to frequencies, etc., the prior download would show how Chirp displays the information from an IC-208H. I learned many years ago that many tasks become much easier the second or third time. It also is a big help to draw upon the experience of another person. I shall look forward to a reply. Thomas

[chirp_users] Dstar ID-RP4000V Repeater
by Robert Keeton 09 Nov '14

09 Nov '14

I have an ICOM , ID-RP4000V Dstar repeater. According to the Wiki page both the VHF and UHF repeater is supported. When I check the daily build list it is not shown as supported and I could not locate a *.py file for the repeater. I have been through the archives and found reference that support for the ID-RP400V was added and it was working , but not much other info. When I run Chirp to try detect the repeater/radio I get an error message " An error has occurred Unable to get radio model". I have tried both the most up to date windows version and a USB thumb drive with the Live CD loaded. Both versions operate fine , but with the error message. Any suggestions???? Bob K7MHJ
