Is there a way to change the LOC number/order in an downloaded document (Yaesu VX-3R) via Chirp ? My Frequencies are in a random order. I would like them in ascending order. John

*From: John HigbyIs there a way to change the LOC number/order in an downloaded document (Yaesu VX-3R) via Chirp ? My Frequencies are in a random order. I would like them in ascending order. John John,I noticed in my version of chirp (only a week old) I can highlight a row by clicking on the row header, right click and select move up or move down one row at a time. The same can be done from the keyboard using Ctrl+up or Ctrl+down, for several rows at a time, and you can use shift to select several rows. Often if you use Excel and try to sort based on one value, it will ask if you want to extend the selection, but it doesn't always sort the entire row.

Well, actually, CSV *DOES* stand for Comma Separated Variables. If anybody uses a different character to separate the variables, e.g. semi-colon, then the data file is not CSV, it is something else. Using CSV to refer to any data file that uses a specific character to separate the variables (except Comma, of course) is on a par with referring to all vacuum cleaners as Hoovers, all analogue multimeters as Avo's, etc. Cheers All, Clarence ________________________________ From: chirp_users-bounces(a)intrepid.danplanet.com <chirp_users-bounces(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> on behalf of chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com <chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> Sent: 30 July 2019 19:00 To: chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com <chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> Subject: chirp_users Digest, Vol 127, Issue 14 Send chirp_users mailing list submissions to chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com You can reach the person managing the list at chirp_users-owner(a)intrepid.danplanet.com When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of chirp_users digest..."

Re: [chirp_users] CHIRP won't recognize .csv file
by Dave B 30 Jul '19

Re:- .CSV dowsn't mean that the correct fields are included or in the correct order, or that the field headers are there, or that the fields are seperated by commas and not some other character. ~ ~ ~ Er... CSV stands for "Comma Separated Variable". So, the data fields /will/be separated by a comma ',' However, the nature of the field contents, and the order they are in, are not part of the CSV format, that IS application specific. Line ends can be whatever the native system expects/can handle, but again, that can cause things to fall over too. CHIRP (and many other similar CSV aware data munchers) are a bit fragile in this respect, but to harden CHIRP against unexpected stuff, would be a major undertaking. Some locale's too, use the comma as a decimal separator, so that can mess things up if you create such a file outside of CHIRP. 73 Dave G0WBX. -- Created on and sent from a Unix like PC running and using free and open source software:

[chirp_users] jetstream jt270m on win10
by Patricia Wilson 30 Jul '19

30 Jul '19

I cannot figure out how to get my radio to download to chirp. I have CHIRP daily-20190703 installed and the usb cable going to the mic input on the radio. I suspect that win10 doesn't like whatever chip there is in the cable but would appreciate suggestions to try before I get another cable (from the known good list). -- Patricia Wilson Apache Junction, AZ Member NRA, ARRL WB8DXX (Extra)

[chirp_users] CHIRP won't recognize .csv file
by Dave C 29 Jul '19

29 Jul '19

I just got a new mobile, a YAESU FTM-7250. Since CHIRP doesn't support this radio yet, also I bought a programming cable and software from RT Systems. This afternoon I built a big (100 plus lines) file with a lot of local and regional repeaters and simplex channels and successfully downloaded it to the new radio, and it all works fine. I then saved the file as a .CSV file so I could import it into CHIRP and load it into my other radios. Unfortunately, when I try to import the .CSV file into CHIRP it tells me the file isn't recognized. I saved the file in .CSV format both from the RT Systems software and from an Open Office spreadsheet and neither will load. I haven't had any trouble loading other .CSV files into CHIRP in the past so I'm mystified as to why this one won't work. Any help would be appreciated. thanks Dave KG7HBQ

[chirp_users] Mac OS 10.15 Catalina (beta) and CHIRP
by Coyote 28 Jul '19

28 Jul '19

Greetings, Currently doing the Catalina beta program, and have discovered after installing it, CHIRP will no longer run. Did reinstall the Python Runtime as I have had to do with other updates, but this time CHIRP will only pop up in the Dock for a second or two and then quit. No error messages thrown. Anyone here doing the beta and have managed to get CHIRP to work? — Coyote

Re: [chirp_users] Yaesu 3200D and RT Systems cable problem
by Jan Ditzian 27 Jul '19

27 Jul '19

I appreciate the answers to my query. The discussion suggests that the cable should work with Chirp, and my findings suggest that it does, to some extent. If someone has figured out how I can either avoid or circumvent the error message and unwillingness of Chirp to work with the data, I would appreciate that. Nigel's message contained an attachment that did not come through to me; I do not know why. This might have my answer. Nigel can e-mail me direct at KX2A(a)arrl.net.. 73, Jan, KX2A

[chirp_users] Yaesu FTM-3200D
by Kenneth Strom VA3KRS 27 Jul '19

27 Jul '19

Regarding programming the Yaesu FTM-3200D, I use the RT Systems ADMS-M3200/3207 software & USB-29F cable. The radio cannot communicate with CHIRP directly, nor can it read the CSV file I created from their software using all the correct settings. Tried every method(s) and did not work.

Re: [chirp_users] Baofeng UV-82HP Programming Issues (MacOS Mojave 10.14.5)
by Michael E. Jaggers 27 Jul '19

Your cable is probably not seated correctly in the radio. You may need to shave some of the plastic around the connector to get it. Common with some cables.
