[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.12 (and updated Website)
by Dan Smith 17 Sep '11

17 Sep '11

Hi all, As promised, I just posted the 0.1.12 release. I did so on the new website software I have been testing. Hopefully the result is a cleaner interface that brings together the bug/feature tracking as well as the main site content. It will also allow some willing volunteers to help write some documentation more easily. Please note that you must now create an account to file a bug. This requirement is intended to help reduce the amount of spam that gets filed on the system, and more specifically, the (large) number of false positives generated by the _dumb_ anti-spam module. I'm sure there will be some bumps in the road (and missing information) with the new website, so please just let me know if something is missing or broken and I'll fix it. Version 0.1.12 brings support for several new radios, including: - Alinco DJ-596T - Baofeng UV-3R - Kenwood TH-K2 - Kenwood TM-271A - Puxing PX-2R - Puxing PX-777 - Yaesu FT-2800M - Yaesu FT-60R The release also includes the usual raft of bug fixes and several new features. I'll be working on a more detailed changelog for the website soon. Thanks to everyone that helped out with contributing code, radios, and bug reports! -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS

[chirp_users] PX-2R downloaded data is corrupted
by Aubrey Turner 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

I downloaded v0.1.12 yesterday (this is the first time I've tried to use CHIRP) to try to back up and edit the memories in my Puxing PX-2R after some frustration with the Puxing software (it crashed after I had hand entered a number of entries). CHIRP connects to the unit and downloads the data, but everything is wrong. It looks like some sort of 'off by one' error, as the channel name has the first letter chopped and the frequencies are wrong, the tones are wrong, etc. For example, in channel 1 I have the settings for a local UHF repeater: * Freq: 442.950MHz * Receive Tone: None * Transmit Tone: 110.9 * Offset: +5MHz * Name: N5SVZ * Width: narrow * Power: high * Step: 12.5Khz Here's what is in the chirp file that I saved from the radio: <memory location="1"> <shortName>5SVZ0</shortName> <longName>5SVZ0</longName> <frequency units="MHz">442.908000</frequency> <squelch id="rtone" type="repeater"> <tone>88.5</tone> </squelch> <squelch id="ctone" type="ctcss"> <tone>88.5</tone> </squelch> <squelch id="dtcs" type="dtcs"> <code>503</code> <polarity>NR</polarity> </squelch> <squelchSetting>dtcs</squelchSetting> <duplex>none</duplex> <offset units="MHz">447.908100</offset> <mode>NFM</mode> <tuningStep units="kHz">5.00000</tuningStep> </memory> I have not used previous versions, so I can't say whether this is an issue with the new build or with my radio. I have had this PX-2R for nearly a year, so I suppose I could have a different variant of the radio (Puxing lists a 'PX-2R plus' that can receive VHF; mine can only work on UHF). Thanks, Aubrey Turner, K5ACT

[chirp_users] Frequencies change when loading to radio...
by John Gorena 14 Sep '11

14 Sep '11

I noticed on Chirp 1.11 that some of the frequencies change when loaded to the Yeasu FT8900 AND that the list is limited to 500 entries. I noticed a few frequencies being saved to the radio were changed from 146.92 to 146.91 and some other similar issues. Has anyone else had that problem? -- John Gorena KD5JUN

I think we're good to go, at least for the radios I have been testing with CHIRP, the FT-2800M, TM-271A, TH-K2, and the IC-W32A. Regards, Jim Givens KJ7F

[chirp_users] Okay, seriously this time...
by Dan Smith 12 Sep '11

12 Sep '11

Some issues have been raised since my last call for a release. Those have been fixed and things have been pretty quiet lately. Unless someone speaks up, I'm going to see about freezing and posting a release very soon. I'm also cooking up a change to the website and tracker, to merge the two and make dealing with the spam issues a lot easier. Speak now! -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS
