[chirp_users] CHIRP channel details will not save in certain instances (UV5R data)
by Bruce Hinton 26 Mar '16

26 Mar '16

Hi All, I had been trying to alter my channel list, (spreadsheet?). Mine is set up with large gaps to be filled in later, not sure if this matters. I found a frequency to which I wanted to add tone SQ, and as soon as I saved it and called it back up, the change was gone. Radio itself was not involved at all. I finally deleted it and made a new entry up near the top of my list, and it saved properly. I cannot find any "lock" feature that would apply for the spreadsheet table, that could be unlocked. The radios won't keep a change on a programmed channel, but that is by design. Any idea why it would not save a tone frequency? Bruce Hinton

(repeat : with the old UV-5R not problem with chirp ! ) the verison of this BF-F9 is BFP3.25 what is the problem ? and the connection he used the today version of chirp and selected in the menu the radio " UV-5R" ....but not connction when he start the DOWLOAD from radio ! why ? have a solution to this problem ... or CHIRP not support this Pofung BF-F9 ? help him please 73

Thank you all for your help. You answered the question I had about changing the power after being programmed in chirp. A big THANK YOU!

I've looked high and low trying to figure this out: Using Chirp I have the tx power set on my radio for each channel. Now my radio won't let me change the tx power via the menu on the radio. It changes initially but reverts back immediately. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I'd like to be able to change power whenever I want to. Thanks

You CAN TEMPORARILY change the power level while in channel mode, but only for the CURRENT session. On my UV-82 while in channel mode, lock off, if I press the "#-Lock" key the radio cycles between H-L. On my UV-82HP while in channel mode, lock off, if I press the "#-Lock" key the radio cycles between H-M-L. Both radios were programmed in CHIRP. As previously stated, this is only a transient power level change. If the channel is changed or the radio powered off/on the power level reverts back to the power level programmed for that channel in CHIRP. The power level does NOT revert back to the programmed setting when transmit is switched between bands and back again.

[chirp_users] Question on Pofung BF-9500
by Michael Jordan 25 Mar '16

25 Mar '16

Hi I seem to have in my memory some discussion about Chirp either covering or not covering the Pofung BF-9500 Given the Chinese propensity of making 1 radio under multiple brand names, I was wondering if this radio was covered under a different name. MS Jordan

Does CHiRP support the tri-band UV-5001+220 or just the dual band UV-5001 ? Thank You, Al

After clicking on a column heading to sort the chirp entries, the new sort order is lost on upload or save. Please advise how I can save/upload sorted rows.
