How can I get my radio supported by CHIRP? In order to add support for a new radio model to CHIRP, a developer needs to reverse engineer the clone protocol and memory format of the radio. This can often be done in a relatively short period of time, but requires physical access to the radio itself. If you're interested in loaning your radio for this process, please follow these steps: 1. Look at the <https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Wiki> front page to make /sure/ that it is not already supported 2. Look at the current set of <http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/issues?query_id=15> new model requests to see if it has already been requested. If it has, do not open another issue, but feel free to post comments and pledges to help in that item 3. If neither of the above applies, then open a <http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/issues/new> new request Please note that there are many new models hitting the market each month. The chinese radio manufacturers crank them out at unbelievable rates. Many of these are copies of the same model, but often changed in very tiny but incompatible ways. As a volunteer-fueled project, we can't possibly address every model that shows up. Everyone wants their radio to be supported, but we have to address the models that are the most popular and which have developer support. If you are in the market for a radio, it is highly recommended that you check the CHIRP model support list before making a purchase. At the beginning of 2016, there were over 300 requests to support new models in CHIRP pending in the issue tracker. A quick search did not show a request to support this radio.

[chirp_users] Been trying to figure out how to program IC-7100 for almost a year now
by Thomas Burns 17 Feb '22

17 Feb '22

hi all, As I've mentioned above, Been trying to figure out how to program IC-7100 for almost a year now. I've followed the live mode radio "import/export" directions as well as the instructions outlined in Bug #7807. I cannot get the radio to accept any input or programming whatsoever. I'm using the latest version and daily update on a raspberry pi 400. Is there anyone who can provide me with or direct me to a step by step guide for programming an Icom IC-7100? Thanks in advance, Conor KI7CRG

[chirp_users] CHIRP support for MacOS/Prolific
by Gary Ross 08 Feb '22

08 Feb '22

Hi, Just received a Yaesu FT-65R and a genuine SCU-35 programing cable (Prolific PL2303). I tried programming my radio with CHIRP4 on Monterey 12.1 on a 2020 MacBook Air, and CHIRP3 on Catalina 10.15 on a 2017 MacBook Air and receive an error with both configurations. Having received the error, I tried to install the Prolific driver found here: http://www.prolific.com.tw/us/showproduct.aspx?p_id=229&pcid=41 I am unclear if the driver was needed or installed correctly. Does anyone have experience with later versions of MacOS/CHIRP/FT-65R? Thanks, Gary

[chirp_users] Call to disavow associate VA6LM for role in Ottawa illegal occupation
by Galen Thurber 06 Feb '22

I call to disavow the logistical & equipment, financial support that associate VA6LM Leslie Thomas Michaelson of EDMONTON, is providing to the illegal protest, Ottawa occupation & to the Couts Alberta blockage. His actions are a gross violation of the code of conduct of amateur radio operator. His disinformation and incitement to hatred is unacceptable. Galen Thurber VE1GAT Halifax. NS

Re: [chirp_users] perfectly clear warning
by David J. J. Ring, Jr. 06 Feb '22

Galen, Stop threatening me and others, it is less stressful for you, and when your "house of reality" collapses, you will be able to pick up the fragmented pieces of your being. I have no idea what you're talking about, but I can guess that it means: You're a racist, anti-semetic and I don't know what "colors" means, but I am sure that it doesn't mean interior decorating. Your reaction to me shows me you have control issues, are probably used to using "hidden violence" and have many mental health issues. I wish you healing and health. You might notice that I've never in my life had to title an email: "perfectly clear warning". That really sums up your behavior to those who watch. Reasonable people don't get into situations of their own making then issuing "perfectly clear warnings" after they've made problems. I'm sending this to the CHIRP email list - remember unprovoked you came on that list and started posting. I think I understood that CHIRP was somehow supporting and perhaps funding the individual you mentioned. I think there is a mental health diagnosis of delusional psychosis, you might consult someone able do diagnose this as perhaps there is treatment available. 73 DR Galen Thurber wrote: Thu, Feb 03, 2022 at 04:43:39PM -0400 > I noticed your social feeds and likes, > yip you lack critical thinking skills. > don't let CRT, Jews & colors get you. > > > On Thu, Feb 3, 2022 at 4:36 PM D.J.J.
