Re: [chirp_users] Chirp On Puppy Linux

The chirp download site and the linux instructions have all been updated in the last few days. https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Download and https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/ChirpOnLinux Dan and I worked together to iron those out for both the Ubuntu/debian versions and the fedora based versions, so those instructions should work on almost all current linux systems using python 3.

Hi All, Is this field required to be filled in when importing with Chirp? I have some of these fields with 23 in it, and some are blank. I'm trying to figure out errors while trying to import a CSV file to my Kenwood. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] Kenwood 2000 and WFM
by K0LNY_Glenn 30 Mar '23

Hey All, I'm working on a CSV file to import into my Kenwood 2000, and I'm putting in a few commercial radio stations, and I am wondering about the FM stations. Will the Kenwood 2000 accept the WFM in the mode column, or do I need to use just FM? Thanks.

[chirp_users] New chirp-next build
by donotreply＠chirp.danplanet.com 28 Mar '23

28 Mar '23

Greetings, A new build of CHIRP-next is available. This includes changes made directly to the tree since yesterday and may include additional features, bug fixes, etc. As a reminder, this is different from the "daily" CHIRP builds in that new development and features are happening here. It is the latest and greatest, but also may be less stable than the "daily" builds at this time. If it works for you, we recommend using CHIRP-next, but if your radio is not yet working on it, then you may prefer to use the "daily" builds for the time being. You can get it from here: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_next/ A list of changes since the last build are here: Changes for Build #76 [3046399+kk7ds] Add Retevis RT15 - fixes #6855 --

[chirp_users] Bug report and an introduction
by zvonimirek222＠yandex.com 28 Mar '23

28 Mar '23

Hi to all list members, I am Zvonimir stanecic from Croatia, 9a5dsz. I am using Crt mikron radio and i am trying to program mit, but i am facing the problem which is called inaccessible interface of the chirp daily. No matter the platform which i am using, Linux or Windows, i have the problem with NVDA screen reader to interact with the program controls via the keyboard. When i am arrowing with the arrow keys, screen reader doesn't read the content of the table in the memory tab, plus i cannot change settings on the settings tab of the chirp interface for the radio itself, because the interface is not accessible to the screen reader. What it should work in the case, is that all actions should be spoken by the screen reader. As i know, the accessibility adaptation can be done, because wx is used here to construct the dialog. Note that i can use the menu, plus select the radio and download from radio, plus upload to it, but for other options i need sighted assistance, which is not the option. I hope that the problem is understandable. Have a nice day, Zvonimir
