So after realising my earlier mistake with directories I am facing the following when trying to install on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Fatal error from pip prevented installation. Full pip output in file: /home/jonh/.local/pipx/logs/cmd_2024-08-21_14.10.06_pip_errors.log pip seemed to fail to build package: yattag Some possibly relevant errors from pip install: error: subprocess-exited-with-error TypeError: canonicalize_version() got an unexpected keyword argument 'strip_trailing_zero' error: metadata-generation-failed Error installing chirp from spec '/home/jonh/Downloads/chirp-20240821-py3-none-any.whl'. I can post the full output if that helps, hopefully someone can help me out. Many thanks

Not sure if this is related to the other thread that is running but I didn't see anything relevant in there so posting a fresh thread. Attempting to install Chirp Next on an Ubuntu 22.04lts laptop. Python 3 installs fine but when trying to install I get the following "Unable to parse package spec: ./chirp-20240821-py3-none-any.whl" Have re-downloaded the file but no difference. Any guidance much appreciated for a Linux noob. Thanks all.

Repeater programming with CHIRP
by radkins01＠live.com 19 Aug '24

19 Aug '24

Hi all, just a quick question or two: I'm using the latest build of CHIRP, and when I populate a list of repeaters, the program enters *every freaking repeater in Florida*, which is like a gazillion. I only want repeaters within 100 miles (or less) of me here in the greater Tampa Bay area. I tried to remove some of the entries but that doesn't work. How can I tell CHIRP that I only want repeaters within a certain set of parameters? There doesn't appear to be a way to be more selective with the program. ANY assistance appreciated! Thanks....

by bmgalante＠icloud.com 17 Aug '24

17 Aug '24

I have two Yeasu FT 7800R and VX170. After downloading from the FT7800R I can see the MEMORY, BANK, And SETTIN tabs at the top of the file. However when downloading there VX170 I have only the memory tab at the top of the file and it does nothing. In the FT7800R I can move and load memory banks. in the VX170 cannot load or move memory. any Idea ??? Thanks Bob

FRS Channel Won't Go Into TD H3
by K0LNY ?? 14 Aug '24

14 Aug '24

Hi, I have a TID TD H3. I used Chirp to pull in the FRS channels that is an option under "file". One channel went in, but the ones before this one and after it did go in. So, my radio jumps from channel 26 to 28 as I have them programmed in. I think it would be channel #17 if I had started at #1 with these. Here's the channel inputs from the CSV file: 27 FRS 17 462.6 5 88.5 88.5 23 NN 23 Tone->Tone NFM 12.5 5.0w * Can anyone suggest what I can do to make this channel available? Thanks Glenn Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine. Glenn K0LNY & WSAT439
