[chirp_users] Easy Way to Print Baofeng Channel Listing
by Bob Miller 13 Jul '18

13 Jul '18

I am an old guy who just recently got back into Amateur Radio after fifty years and my first purchase was a Baofeng UV-82HP to experiment with on two meters. Kudos to the people who gave Chirp to the World, however, I think I need a Cheat Sheet of sorts so I would like to print the channel listing when I clone my radio. I hope such a utility is available and I just haven't found it. Incidentally Repeaters hadn't been invented the last time I was into Ham Radio. Bmiller(a)jocoed.net KN4MWQ

[chirp_users] Installation file.
by Dennis Wage 13 Jul '18

13 Jul '18

Dan, I cannot delete the chirp daily installation file from Explorer on 10. This has happened to me twice, it's not every time with every file. I have to go to a dos prompt to delete. I run a tight ship PC and this seems weird. Dennis M.

[chirp_users] More communications problems
by Bruce Warren 11 Jul '18

11 Jul '18

My problems continue. I have a Yaesu VX-6R and am using Chirp on a Mac. My prior issue was an incompatibility between my operating system and the USB driver. I can now communicate and download from my radio to my computer. But, I cannot upload from the computer to the radio. When I try to upload, the process starts and I can see the blue progress bar. Then, the radio reports an "Error" and Chirp just sits there doing nothing. I have tried downloading the one programmed frequency and then immediately uploading it, but get the error described above. I have also tried with data I enter directly into Chirp. Any ideas?

[chirp_users] Mac to Vaesu communication problem
by Bruce Warren 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

I am using a Mac with OS 10.6.8. I want to use Chirp to communicate with a Yaesu VX-6R. I have a USB cable from RT Systems specifically designated for the Yaesu. I installed the driver and my computer says it recognizes the USB cable. I installed a version of Chirp and it does not crash. When I try to download from my radio using Command-D, I get a window for selecting the Port, Vendor, and model. Under the choice for Port, I get two options: "/dev/cu.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync" and "/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem". When I try with "/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem", it immediately tells me it cannot open the port. When I try with " /dev/cu.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync", it tries to do something and then errors out, saying: "Failed to communicate with the radio." Any ideas on what is wrong or what I can do to fix it?

[chirp_users] IC-92AD Band edge issues
by Chuck Hast 07 Jul '18

07 Jul '18

I am still getting a lot of errors when I try to work with my IC-92AD. Has this radio been abandoned? Wenlock and I both have observed the same sort of errors, but we are not sure what needs to be done. If the radio is abandoned perhaps it should be taken off of the supported list. If someone can give us some guidance as to where to poke we can try to do as much as possible. But at this point I for sure do not know much more than what Wenlock has ob- served it appears to be an issue with the The present machine running Ubuntu Mate 18.04 CPU i7 Memory 16G As I recall this was one of the first radios Chirp was aimed at. I know that it is not spring chicken but sure would like to see Chirp handle it like it used to. -- Chirp + Editcp + MD380Tools on Linux Celestial!!! Chuck -- KP4DJT

Mine works just fine, but it picked the wrong port the first time out.

My biggest problem is that the software is looking for a com port connection. Is there any work around for this?
