I’m using CHIRP on a Mac with Mavericks 10.9.4. Where is the Print Command in the CHIRP menu system? I want to print a .img spread sheet. So far only Screen Capture works for me. Thanks, Jim

[chirp_users] Baofeng BF8-F8HP Firmware Error
by Brian 16 Aug '14

16 Aug '14

While attempting to program my new Baofeng BF-F8HP radio I received the following error message Unsupported firmware version: `N5R-30 F8HP-1 '. I was able to download from the radio but not upload. This is using the daily build dated 8/12/14 which supports the radio. Please any ideas ? I did try to use the UV5r settings as I do with my BF8-8+ and the radio downloaded, but again I could not upload.. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks , Brian KM4CMY

[chirp_users] Chirp will download from FT-60, but not upload.
by ws6ta＠cox.net 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

Having issues uploading from Chirp to a Yaesu FT-60. Have tried two different computers, both with serial ports, using a serial to 4-pin programming cable. Both computers are running Windows XP Pro SP3. Chirp successfully installed on both machines and will read from the radio without issue. When I try to upload back to the radio, even the file it just read, I get a message that "An error has occurred - Failed to communicate with radio: Radio did not respond" The radio was in the RX mode at the time, is fully charged and works otherwise. Suggestions? Thanks! Keith-
