[chirp_users] Motorola CDM
by Robert Carlson 16 Apr '21

16 Apr '21

I have programming software for my various amateur radio equipment as well as specific Motorola software. I was directed here because I need to drop the frequency range on a cdm1550 by 2 MHz all the top of the bottom. From what I have read There is a waris.py file somewhere available for download did enables chirp to work with a Motorola? I am confused on the matter. I've read the offsets that need to be changed with a hex editor and if that's all I need to do then I suppose that will work. On the other hand, I'd love to support chirp financially if it can handle all of my various pieces of equipment from one piece of software. Or am I misunderstanding that I still need my RSS software or CPS software? Thank you in advance.

Hello List, I'm confused. I have added the sources for Chirp daily snapshot to Debian Stable. I install chirp. I ask chirpw --version and I get: CHIRP daily-20201221 on Linux - Debian GNU/Linux 10 (Python 2.7.16) when I try to install again, wajig install chirp-daily install chirp-daily Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done chirp-daily is already the newest version (20210310~xenial~1). How do I get the newest chirp? 73 David N1EA

[chirp_users] Support for Radioddity GS-5B?
by babj615 29 Mar '21

I do not see the Radioddity GS-5B listed on the roadmap, or anywhere else on the CHIRP webpage. Will there not be support for this radio? I have been using CHIRP with my BaoFeng radio with great success, wish to also use it with my new Radioddity GS-5B. Thank You! -- *///*Andy

[chirp_users] lock out transmit freqs
by Christopher Arthur 27 Mar '21

27 Mar '21

I am setting up a number of BF UV-5 for a mixed batch of ham-licensed and non-licensed users. Using MURS and GMRS for most of the of the users, but i need to lock out everything else (eg. US weather service). at the same time, we will have a couple of ham repeaters for several of us licensed operators. How can I selectively disable transmit function in CHIRP? Can't find anything in the miniature hard-to-read BF manual. "I can think of no more stirring symbol of man's humanity to man than a fire engine..." (Kurt Vonnegut)

[chirp_users] FT-70D Port for Mac
by Lawrence Underwood 27 Mar '21

27 Mar '21

I am on a MacBook Pro 13 running 11.2.3. When I attempt to download the radio to Chirp the port that is auto populated is /dev/cu/.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port. When I put the radio into ADMS mode and attempt to download it I get ‘ERROR’ on the radio and a message stating that the radio did not respond on Chirp. I am using the cable supplied by Yaesu. Any ideas on how to get the radio to communicate with Chirp? Thanks.
