[chirp_users] Chirp 0.1.12 - difficulty with IC-V82
by simon＠mungewell.org 07 Oct '11

07 Oct '11

Hi all, I haven't played for a bit, so I tried 0.1.12 on my ICOM and it's not syncing with the radio :-( -- --- Exception Dialog: Out of sync with radio --- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/simon/chirp-0.1.12/chirpui/clone.py", line 167, in run cs.radio_class = detect.DETECT_FUNCTIONS[vendor](cs.port) File "/home/simon/chirp-0.1.12/chirp/detect.py", line 73, in detect_icom_radio result = _detect_icom_radio(s) File "/home/simon/chirp-0.1.12/chirp/detect.py", line 41, in _detect_icom_radio md = icf.get_model_data(s) File "/home/simon/chirp-0.1.12/chirp/icf.py", line 129, in get_model_data frames = stream.get_frames() File "/home/simon/chirp-0.1.12/chirp/icf.py", line 123, in get_frames return self._process_frames() File "/home/simon/chirp-0.1.12/chirp/icf.py", line 80, in _process_frames raise errors.InvalidDataError("Out of sync with radio") InvalidDataError: Out of sync with radio ---------------------------- -- I believe the cable/serial port is good as I can use tk500 on my scanner. I am starting chirpw without entering clone mode on the radio. Any suggestions? Is there a way to disable auto-detection? Simon

[chirp_users] Chirp and Ubuntu 10.04
by KE5EOT 01 Oct '11

01 Oct '11

I loaded Chirp last night, but it doesn't start. I click the link in Applications, the disk churns for a few seconds, but nothing happens. I checked the System Monitor, but there's no reference to Chirp. Any ideas on what to check? -- Randy (KE5EOT) ARRL, QCWA, ARES, RACES http://ke5eot.webs.com

[chirp_users] Ft-8800 Chirp 0.12
by Allan R. Batteiger 25 Sep '11

25 Sep '11

Dan I just programmed a FT-8800 and I have some interesting results. I tried to make channels as P (preferred for scanning) since the list I imported has quite a number of repeaters and simplex freq. I also set the scn.msm to msm. and scan mode to msm However I am still scanning all memories! I downloaded the radio using Bob Freeth software and discovered that the Preffered bits are set for Hyper Memory 2 mostly correct, Hyper Memory 1 mostly wrong ( missing quit a few, some random ones set). the other hyper memories are not set at all. I have attached before and after files. The ones that do not say new are the one where I imported my radio, then the CSV file, marked the channels as pref. The one with new in the name were done by reading the radios using bob Freeth's software, correcting the issues, writing them back out to the radio and testing them, then reading them back in using chirp. This should give you two set of files in your format to compare the differences. Allan WB5QNG

[chirp_users] CSV import is broken
by drTr0jan 22 Sep '11

22 Sep '11

I use chirp-0.1.12 Win32 version. But i can't import CSV file saved by CHIRP. Example.csv: Location;Name;Frequency;Duplex;Offset;Tone;rToneFreq;cToneFreq;DtcsCode;DtcsPolarity;Mode;TStep;Skip;Bank;Bank Index;URCALL;RPT1CALL;RPT2CALL 1;;433.075000;;0.000000;;88.5;88.5;023;NN;NFM;5.00;;;-1;;;; 2;;433.100000;;0.000000;;88.5;88.5;023;NN;NFM;5.00;;;-1;;;; I've opened the CSV file, but got empty Generic CSV. Or i've created empty "document" and imported the CSV file, but got empty (only zero line) Import From File dialog. P.S. I don't want to register on the bug tracker for leaving the issue.

[chirp_users] Saving local/user data in Win7
by Boris Korzun 22 Sep '11

22 Sep '11

I notice that the program saves "debug.log" in the program directory (default in "Program Files\CHIRP"). But Windows Seven UAC forbids saving of user (runtime) data in the Program Files tree. Win7 UAC advices to save user data in %APPDATA% or %LOCALAPPDATA% directories (ex. "C:\Users\[username]\AppData\" + "Roaming\" or "Local\" + "[program name]\"). Could author change the path of saving user data?

[chirp_users] Repository/python-serial issue
by Andy Lavarre 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

I have http://d-rats.com/yum/f11/ installed as a repository. I tried adding http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/repository to the openSUSE repository list, but it failed. There was an error in the repository initialization. Error refreshing service chirp (http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/repository): Parse error: repoindex.xml[122] Entity 'copy' not defined Is there another option? ===== The reason I ask is that chirp fails to install under openSUSE 11.4 software manager yast2. It complains that "nothing provides pyserial needed by chirp-0.1.1.12-1.noarch " even though I have the latest python-serial offered by yast2 (2.5-3.3). TIA, Andy

Hi all, Can someone try using v0.1.12 to upload and download from their Yaesu VX6? There has been a report that this operation is broken in 0.1.12 and I'd like to get confirmation of that before I try to find one to borrow. Thanks! -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS
