[chirp_users] Yaesu FT-60R issue and fix endorsement
by jerry 10 Nov '23

10 Nov '23

Hi, I just wanted to endorse the "fix" that I gathered from the back and forth dialog on the issues board. I, too, found that I could download from the radio fine but it simply wouldn't upload. Seeing the OP got things to work with a new cable from BlueMax49ers.com I went ahead and ordered one although I could not see how the cable I used for years with other Yaesu radios did not work. Amazingly, the CT-91 BlueMax cable worked immediately and I just wanted to further endorse this "solution" to other FT-60 owners. Another suggestion: There seems to be a missing line in the instruction drop down for uploading to the radio. There is no prompt to hit the OK as the final step as there is on the download instruction. You do have to hit the OK button or the download will not start. Great program and great support. Thank you. Jerry

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-17 / UV-18
by Gary Halleen 09 Nov '23

I see that a dev driver for supporting UV-17/BF-17 series of radios, as well as the UV-18/BF-18 on Miklor. I’ve tried it and it seems to work fine on my UV-18 Pro I Black and on my UV-17 Pro L radios. It doesn’t support uploading a new logo, but everything else I’ve tried seems to be okay. Is there a plan for including this support directly into the Chirp-Next release in the near future? Thanks! Gary K7TRO

[chirp_users] Uninstall Chirp NEXT - linux pipx whl
by Christian 06 Nov '23

06 Nov '23

Greetings All, Successfully installed chirp on linux (Debian 12) using pipx and the most current .whl file. Runs as expected, but I'd like to uninstall completely and change to flatpak for ease of version management. Anyone have instructions on how to uninstall completely? The install instructions do mention uninstalling old versions but provide no detail. 73! KD9ZCM
