Sorry...skimmed this as 5x3, not 50x3...but I saw a post last year that complained that there is no voice mode. ~R~ On 2018-03-10 11:44:+0000, Rich Messeder wrote: >My 5x3s speak the menu. > >73 de ~Rich~ NE1EE ARES AEC >Short email?

Hi All, Does anyone know if this radio speaks the menus like the Baofeng HT units do? You might reply off-list on this since it's not really Chirp related. Thanks.

[chirp_users] New Radio / Use

Just got a new BTECH 5x3. It is my understanding that there is no other software available except CHIRP. Is there anyway to adjust radio menu items with CHIRP? Listing a few as examples: TX-RX display color, channel display mode (CH#,Freq,Name), I don't see any way to set DTMF alerts, which is the main reason I bought this radio. Thanks in advance.

[chirp_users] Global Skip/Other Fields with Menues
by Gene Vincent 09 Mar '18

09 Mar '18

I accidentally got the "skIp" field to change all channels entered so far to skip. I don't know how I managed that. I also managed to get them all changed back. With my laptop, not realizing which key combination I hit. Can someone please tell me how to make the channels all skip or all narrow band, etc. using just that column? Thanks.

I was recommended to put an old driver 3.2 into my PC windows 7 pro for the patch lead.. It took some getting in but I still get the same message error cant find header. any more ideas would be great otherwise why list the radio on chirp ?

If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-20180309 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #516 [nicolas jon pike <nicolas.jon.pike(a)gmail.com>] New Model #5329 FT70 Driver I now have enough of the driver working to be useful. Read / write memories, a number of the settings, and import from RepeaterBook work. Saving modes dn,vw and AMS in memory channels, do not currently work. Banks have not been tested - may now work, VFO settings not implemented (etc) I have also raised a request for C4FM to be added to CHIRP Modes. [Mathias Weyland <lt-betrieb(a)hb9uf.ch>] [Alinco DJ-G7] Introduce empty flag, mode & frequency range checks. At the time I was adding support for the DJ-G7 radio, I was not aware of a flag that was used to hide memory channels in the main band. The main band only supports a subset of modes and frequencies on this radio. My original code used this flag improperly, such that a channel was never hidden from the main band regardless of its settings. This does not do any harm to the radio, but such a memory channel is useless in the main band due to hardware constraints. More importantly, the original programming software by Alinco crashes when operating on a memory map pulled from a radio programmed with chirp if the flag is not used correctly. After some discussions with and advice from Emiel, I have completed a patch that adds proper support for this flag. The patch is attached. See #5275 for a more in-depth discussion of the issue.

I have a Yeasu FT-857d, I was able to load all the repeaters I wanted in from importing from repeaterbook, My questions is, is there a easy way to rename the channels to the frequency instead of the repeater call sign?Thanks in advance.Kevin KI7MOC
