Fwd: I must be doing something wrong.
by Joel Leland 13 Apr '24

13 Apr '24

I am using ZORIN PRO 17.1. I just upgraded from 15.something. Chirp was working just fine on the 15. I'm using a BAOFENG UV-5R. I have tried 2 different cables, which both worked before this upgrade. I am pretty sure I am doing something wrong. That is what usually happens. I have tried /dev/ttyUSB0 up to USB4 with no success. I could just have syntax wrong which is usually the case. I am not real good with the command line; i.e. I don't know a lot of commands but I do know how to get there. The attached file will show the information on the CHIRP version. It is a screen shot from the HELP prompt. What am I doing wrong? Thank you for your help -- Joel F. Leland

Setting Compander for AR-63/TXQ-G63
by kujulu＠gmail.com 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

Is it possible to set Compander on AR-63 radios using CHIRP? With the TXQ (PC) software verging on unusable on Windows 11 ARM for MacOS users, I am now reliant on CHIRP to program my Abbree AR-63 (TXQ-G63). Have I overlooked a setting in CHIRP? If not what's the best way to get this setting onto CHIRP? I'm very happy to fire over one of my radios to a dev if that would help.

CHIRP editing question
by Ken Roberts 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

Simple editing question: I can select and edit a row, but I can't select and edit a column. For example, I want to select the NFM mode in multiple rows and change it to FM. There doesn't seem to be any way to do it. If I select multiple rows, it will only change the first entry in the column. What am I missing? I would like to see it work more like Excel. Ken

Uniden Scanner Support
by EliteG1 31 Mar '24

31 Mar '24

Hello Group, The new list seems to be doing well... I'm noticing a lot of new modules being added to the tool, and I'm wondering if anyone has revisited the possibility of adding support for the Uniden Scanner Line. I use a BC-780 XLT to monitor Amateur, GMRS, and PS. I leave it connected to the main desktop (LinuxMint v20.4) 24/7 via serial cable, and I would use it a lot more if it were able to be programmed by Chirp... 73, Bruce KB6LWN

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: larry louree <larrylouree(a)gmail.com> To: chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com Cc: Bcc: Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2024 18:18:28 -0400 Subject: Baofeng UV-75 Pro 10 watt Radio Greetings! I just ordered a Baofeng UV-75 Pro 10 Watt High Power Walkie talkie to add to my collection of UV-5R 8 watt radios for family and community event support. I checked the Chirp web page, knowing that many of these use the same software, and I couldn't find a UV-75 of any version in the listing. Is it possible that this might be a UV-17 Pro? there was some note in the software part of the data page that 'might' use the UV-17 software to program this radio. I"m hoping that I will be able to cut and paste my UV-5R programs into this radios Chirp framework and be able to be on line pretty quickly. Or Is there another method to program it? Thanks in Advance.
