I completed testing and filed a bug report. Summary: Testing indicates that chirp import routine for this radio doesn't handle either empty fields or "spaces" in fields that are otherwise properly csv-delimited. Until this is changed, we must FILL referenced fields, even when not used, and CLEAR otherwise empty fields, such as Duplex. It's the work of a few minutes to do this. Otherwise, Excel files seem to work when exported to csv and imported into chirp, so there is no format flaw introduced by Excel, such as the wrong number of trailing commas, etc., at least in my testing and use. 73 Rich NE1EE

To Whom It May Concern: Can someone tell me what the “Channel A display type” and “Channel A work mode selections” (and the associated B channel) within the settings tab do? Thanks, Herb N4RG I want to tell the whole world that I love my wife and kids - what better way than one email at a time.

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV82 HW?
by K0LNY ?? 16 Jan '24

16 Jan '24

Hello, I am working on a friend's Baofeng, which lost its memories and was completely reset and he does not know how that happened. He set it to English again, and all the memories are gone. So he thought the model is a UV 82 HW But that is not in the list in Chirp. I downloaded the latest Chirp tonight. I was able to download and upload using both choices UV 82 and UV 82 HP The other two UV 82 choices came back with the error like not expected amount of data from radio. So the memories gave me an error about a field that wasn't right, and I okayed that and uploaded without a glitch. But there still aren't any memories in the radio. But when I download from the radio, they are all there. So what would cause this radio to not use the memories? It is in channel mode. It only goes from 0 to 127. Is this a radio issue, or a problem with the IMG? Thanks Glenn A man with a clock always knows what time it is. A man with two clocks is never sure. -- A derivative of Segal's law

[chirp_users] Entering airband frequencies
by Roland Welte 16 Jan '24

16 Jan '24

Dear Chirp Community, I am using Chirp Next with a BAOFENG 5RX radio. Since this particular radio is not among the supported devices I select radio BAOFENG UV-5R, which generally works fine. However, the 5RX radio covers airband frequencies (108-136 MHz) which the UV-5R does not, so Chirp won't let me enter airband frequencies (although downloading these frequencies from the radio works fine). Is there a trick to circumvent Chirp's validity checks when entering frequencies? Your help with this is very much appreciated, Roland

[chirp_users] email formatting
by Rich NE1EE 11 Jan '24

11 Jan '24

I see inbound emails as the attached image, which are very difficult to parse. It's as if all line feeds and/or carriage feeds are stripped from the email. I don't see this in other emails. Do you all see this? If not, what can I do on my end? Or is there a setting in the chirp mail list that I need to set? 73 Rich NE1EE The Dusty Key On the banks of the Piscataqua
