Anybody get this cable to work with the radio ? I have installed the drivers on XP SP3. Comes up as COM5. CHIRP says the radio is not connected.

[chirp_users] Cable
by Richard Mogford 22 May '14

22 May '14

I am new to this list and probably am making mistakes that are already well known! I bought a cheap cable running the 2303 chip, which I found later is not so good. The drivers on the supplied CD seem to work OK, but when I go to use CHIRP, I get an "Error Occurred" message saying "could not open port COM3: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified." Is there anything I can try here, or should I just shop for a better cable? Richard

[chirp_users] Change language from Chinese to English-Baofeng UV-5R
by Michael Clark 22 May '14

22 May '14

When entering my one and only repeater frequency, offset, TX, RX, etc., the language changed from English to Chinese. How do I change it back to English? Can't seem to find the commands in the booklet. Radio receives and transmits fine.

Re: [chirp_users] Summer Project : transcoding CHIRP
by Al Szymanski 21 May '14

21 May '14

Thanks for the feedback. My thoughts are that by putting the entire application in Java, then there would be no platform dependencies at all. ( wishful thinking ) . I will be working "in the dark" so to speak as where I am spending my summer will have no real internet, just occasional email. Thus I will be bashing code without exterior support. Again, thanks for the feedback. al

[chirp_users] Summer Project : transcoding CHIRP
by Al Szymanski 20 May '14

20 May '14

I believe that I have downloaded the most current code sources. If I may, one question: which of the many files is the main entry point? Is it chirp_common.py ? Looks about right, but I don't want to miss anything. I will be working to convert CHIRP to Java first, and if successful, another type of port. Thanks Al

Re: [chirp_users] Using Linux, Chirp and the FTDI cable & driver.
by raymond reese 20 May '14

20 May '14

I am presently using Win7hp, Chirp and FTDI cable and everything works great. However, I am learning to use Linux 16 / Mint with the Cinnamon Desktop. I have downloaded the FTDI Linux 0.4.16 driver and some instructions I don't understand. The problem is, I have not a clue of where to go from there. Is there anyone out there that can help me get this driver installed and etc.?
