[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. The actual upper limit is 50. This patch sets the upper limit check to 50 (0x32). fixes #9858 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [GMRS-V1] Fix PTT ID Delay (PTT-LT) Upper Limit Check The driver for the GMRS-V1 currently considers PTT-LT values above 30 as out-of-range and forces them to the factory devault value of 5.
