[chirp_users] Using chirp with ubuntu 22.04
by Guy Schlosser 03 Jun '22

03 Jun '22

Hey everyone, I am new to this list, so first off hello. I am trying to get chirp running on my system. I am running Ubuntu 22.04, with all packages current. Chirp is installed via apt, as using snap or flat pack renders it inaccessible with Orca. The problem, when I download from my Baofeng Uv5r, I get an error that says module ‘collections’ has no attribute callable. Is anyone running Chirp successfully on Ubuntu 22.04? I know that Python 2 is no longer supported. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much in advance, Guy JAWS Certified, 2021, https://www.freedomscientific.com/Training/Certification

[chirp_users] Flatpak
by John KI4RO 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

I keep seeing references to this program but how I should use it is not at all obvious to me. I've tried asking it for help and even asked it for help with certain commands but none of it makes sense to me. I am not Linux literate by any stretch so please tell me step by step what to do. 73 John KI4RO.

[chirp_users] New Daily Build
by Build System 31 May '22

31 May '22

Greetings, A new daily build of CHIRP is available. This includes changes made directly to the tree yesterday, and may include additional features, bug fixes, and/or bugs. If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-20220531 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #687 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Merge branch 'master' of github.com:kk7ds/chirp [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] New Model: Anysecu WP-9900 This patch adds support for the Anysecu WP-9900 mobile radio. Resolves #9827 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] New Model: QYT KT-WP12 This patch adds support for the QYT-KT12 mobile radio. #9827 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] Driver Maintenance (V2): btech.py related to #9845 Recently I have been focused on improving the speed and reliably of the btech.py driver module. Bug # 9818 was a first round attempt to bring about some improvements. This round, V2 if you will, has basically scrapped much of the original download/upload routines and has rebuilt them to more closely match how the OEM programming software works. The initialization of the cloning process is so reliable now that the code that tried 3 times before giving up was also removed. Before I submited these changes to be included into CHIRP, I wanted to reach out to a larger group of testers to validate this new code. Requests for external participation were made to some Facebook groups and the [chirp_users] mailing list. Unfortunately, there was vitrually no response from these requests for participation (and one post was removed as a violation of the group's rules). Despite the lack of external volunteers, I have been doing a broad range of testing to ensure that the changes provided in this patch will successfylly work with the broad range for radios that are supported by this driver module. The local testing was done on 5 different computers utilizing a variety of operating systems: - Windows 7 32-bit desktip - Windows 10 64-bit laptop - Linux Mint 20.3 desktop - Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) Bullseye Raspberry Pi 3 Model B - macOS Catalina laptop There were 12 different radios used for these tests. - Anyseco WP-9900 - BTech UV-2501, UV-2501+220, UV-5001, UV-25X2, UV-25X4, UV-50X2, GMRS-X1, and 1 additional pre-release model. - Luiton LT-588UV - QYT KT-8R (handheld) - WACCOM MINI-8900 Plus And finally there were programming cables available from the 4 most common USB-to-UART chip vendors (PC03 style for the handheld radio and PC04 style for the mobile radios). - Future Technology Devices International (FTDI) - Prolific - Silicon Labs - WinChipHead (WCH) Each operating system/radio/programming cable combination was tried a minimun of 2 times (1 download/1 upload) for a minimum total of 480 tests. All were 100% successful. I am very pleased with the results. This patch adds support for this "V2" method of cloning to the btech.py driver module.

[chirp_users] Fix Numbers In A CSV File
by K0LNY_Glenn 29 May '22

29 May '22

Hi, I have a CSV file for a radio that had a channel zero, and I want to start it with a one, but I don't want to rewrite a couple hundred cells. Does libra Calc have the ability to allow me to select the column and fix the numbers? So now I have two #1s and I'd like to add a 1 to subsequent numbers. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] r-tone freq
by K0LNY_Glenn 29 May '22

29 May '22

Hi, I had obtained my original CSV file that I import into different radios, with editions, according to the radio. I was wondering about the r-tone freq column. All of mine are 88.5, and I'm guessing that r-tone is receive tone, which if it is that, I think that I will only hear other radios with the same r-tone frequency. Is this what the r-tone freq is? If so, I will remove all of them. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] Tytera 9800 Programming
by K0LNY_Glenn 29 May '22

29 May '22

Hi, A vender of this radio tels how to expand the range of the four bands on this radio, some of the info I pasted below, but the software I downloaded from the Tytera site does not recognize the com port settings, it says the baud rate is wrong, but it only offers 115200 and 57 hundred and something. It read the com port first as com 3 and when that didn't work, I then I changed it to 13 in device manager and restarted the program, and it found it again on 13, but it still did not offer the right baud rate as an option, I changed it in device manager two times, trying its options for baud rate, but it still does not work. I tried putting it to 9600 in device manager, but it kept its own selection in the Tyt software. So, I'd like to use Chirp, but I read on line that I can't expand the frequency capabilities with Chirp. Does anyone know if this is the case? Here's what I got from a vendor's site: Glenn How the unlock the frequency ranges? 1. Connect your TH-9800 with the programming software and load (''read'') it to the software 2. Press ''CtrL+F11'' and enter the password ''9800TYT''; 3. Edit the frequency range: Maximum Frequency Range: - 26-33MHz (RX/TX) (AM band RX) - 47-54MHz (RX/TX) (AM band RX) - 136-174MHz (RX/TX) - 400-480MHz (RX/TX) 4. Write to the radio, turn off the radio and then turn it back on. Now, it can work in the expected frequency range.

[chirp_users] flatpak and modern linux
by Cinaed Simson 27 May '22

27 May '22

Hi - has anyone with a modern Linux OS succeeded in installing a working copy of chirp using flatpak? By a modern Linux I mean one with version of python3 greater then 3.6 - in general In a terminal window, type python3 and it will print out the version of python3 when it starts up. For instance, the version of python3 on my machine is Python 3.10.4 -- Cinaed

[chirp_users] Add-on Modules/Scripts for Chirp ?
by KB6LWN - Bruce 17 May '22

17 May '22

Hello Group, Just received delivery of a new-old Uniden BC-780XLT Trunk Tracker III Scanner, and I'd like to be able to program it with my PC (Linux Mint Desktop), and I'm wondering if there is a 'module' available for Chirp that will allow me to do this. Just updated to the latest FlatPak. (Linux Mint 20.4) Since I use Linux - I don't have access to run the MS- Windows version of the software specifically written for this receiver. Which reminds me 'rigctl' seems to read the receiver and I have gotten a list of the cmd- capabilities using that tool, if that is needed... If there is not a module specifically FOR this receiver, perhaps I could get a copy of a module for another unit that I might be able to modify for my use. Anything is better than going back to Windows, or trying to get Wine to work under Linux... A Linux native (port) is really needed for scanner Ops... At this point I use Chirp to program my various BTech, Bao's, Leixen, and a couple more, and it makes the task so much easier. Hope to do the same with the scanner...

[chirp_users] UV-5RE Plus Working Model Settings query
by dpbarry＠barryweb.co.uk 16 May '22

16 May '22

Hi Folks. Have just set up my UV-5RE Plus with relevant channels and settings but one that is causing me a bit of a head scratcher in the Work Mode Settings is the MR A Channel and MR B Channel. Maybe I'm misunderstanding this but I set these two fields up to hold location 16 and location 60 as 'Defaults' so that no matter what channel I left it at when I switched the radio off, when I switched it back on again, it would revert back to the 'Defaults' If I have understood this facility correctly, it isn't doing it. If I move off a default channel using the up or down arrow then switch the radio off then back on again, it stays at the last positions - it doesn't revert back to the defaults. Have I misintrepreted this?? Regards Declan

If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-20220515 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #686 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [TD-UV5R TriPower] TIDRADIO TD-UV-5R TriPower Incorrect Alias The TIDRADIO TriPower (tri-power) radio was mistakenly aliased to the Radioddity/Baofeng UV-5RX3 (tri-band) model. It should have instead have been aliased to the Baofeng BF-F8HP (tri-power) model. This patch moves the alias to the correct model. fixes #9870 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [GMRS-V2] New Model: Baofeng TEch GMRS-V2 This patch adds support for the BTech GMRS-V2 #9863 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [MURS-V1] Add Display and Edit Alarm Code Feature This patch adds the ability to display and edit the Alarm Code. fixes #9861 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [GMRS-V1] Add Display and Edit Alarm Code Feature This patch adds the ability to display and edit the Alarm Code. fixes #9860 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [MURS-V1] Fix PTT ID Delay (PTT-LT) Upper Limit Check The driver for the MURS-V1 currently considers PTT-LT values above 30 as out-of-range and forces them to the factory devault value of 5.

Good afternoon, I recently set up my UV-5RTP using chirp. I uploaded my new memories but went back to change some settings and the settings tab is blank. I have re uploaded, restarted the program and radio, and tried to start over to no avail. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you. Jack

I noticed there was a request to add this radio that was posted about 4 years ago. I don't know if it is anybody's project but I have one with the Mr. Potatohead microphone that I will loan to whomever wants to build a driver for this radio to program in Chirp. Offer includes a programming cable. David Davis Oregon Sent using https://www.zoho.com/mail/
