220 BAND
by Ricardo Duran 29 Mar '25

29 Mar '25

hI I read somewhere that the CHIRP program for Baofeng Radios such as the UV-5R III model drops the capability of programming in the 220 input/output frequencies. This model is supposed to operate on the three bands. Everything else seems to work just fine as far as programming the radio. Your program is wonderful. I am using the latest version of CHIRP. Am I not doing something correctly?. Or is this simply a limitation to the program? Thank you in advance for whatever help you can provide, 73, de Ric WD7U

Possible Bug In TD H3 In Chirp
by K0LNY ?? 25 Mar '25

25 Mar '25

Hello All, I don't know if this is a bug in Chirp or what, but I am using the open firmware on the Tid TD H3, which is the Ham version of that radio, and for the life of me, I could not get a GMRS repeater in my area to work from a programmed channel that I put in with Chirp. So last night I put a channel in by hand, and set it to a number, and that works. So, it isn't the radio, with this issue. Glenn You're never too old to learn something stupid. Glenn K0LNY & WSAT439

TID TD H3 Channels That Chirp Complains About
by K0LNY ?? 24 Mar '25

24 Mar '25

Hello, Well last night I finally got my 64 channels into the radio with Chirp. The newest Chirp I grabbed yesterday may have done the trick, but even that didn't work at first. Anyway, there are still two channels that I may have the lines wrong on, and one imports to the radio with Chirp, but does not work, and the other errors with Chirp, and I am wondering if there is something with these lines that need fixing. One is for my FM transmitter in my house, it transmits at 86.99 mhz. I can pick it up with my H3 by toggling to FM with the bottom side key and entering the frequency. The other problem channel is an AM airband frequency, and this radio is supposed to receive AM airband. Chirp says it should not use duplex, and I either have zero or nothing in that field, so I don't know why Chirp complains about that. I'll paste the lines below in case anyone cares to make suggestions for changes. Thanks. Glenn 64 HomeFM 87 FM 63 AIRPRT 122.7 5 88.5 88.5 23 NN 23 Tone->Tone AM 5 Glenn K0LNY & WSAT439

Hello folks, I'm struggling with trying to import a CSV into Chirp. I download from my radio, and save to CSV, and then edit the CSV, and Chirp gives me an error message, which I'll paste below. After that error message is okayed, I get the error, invalid file format. Thanks for any ideas. I've had others look at it, and they can't tell what is wrong here.

I looked at the release notes for the latest build and saw the new model ticket number (11775) for the H777H_FRS shows an SKU of A9104J for the FRS version. The SKU for the radios I am trying to connect is A9294C. Is this a different H777 model that also needs support developed?
