Yaesu 857d Download from Radio Not Working

857d Digirig CHIRP-next 20250214 Ubuntu 24.04 CHIRP sees the USB connection and starts the download. Send on the radio's end finishes with progress bar almost complete on CHIRP. After a few seconds, I get an error message stating: RadioError: Failed to communicate with radio: Unable to read last block. This often happens when the selected model is US but the radio is a non-US one (or widebanded). Please choose the correct model and try again. I have reset the radio. I have unplugged and plugged the Digirig interface back in. I have tried an alternate CAT cable. Both Digirig and the alternate CAT cable have worked with previous versions of the software. As a complicating factor, between the old versions and this one, I reinstalled ubuntu 24.04 Debug Log Follows. I'll admit I never had to look in the debug log before, has the 857 always used the 817 drivers?

P15UV
by Massimo Nespolo 06 Feb '25

06 Feb '25

Greetings, In the list of supported radio, I do not see the Baofeng/Pofung P15UV https://www.chirpmyradio.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home https://www.manualslib.com/manual/2389725/Pofung-P15uv.html https://www.anyradios.com/product/baofeng-p15uv-radio/ According to Miklor, it should use the same factory software as the UV-17 Pro or UV-13 / UV-22 https://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Software.php I wonder if choosing these models in CHIRP will also work. I haven't received the radio and I see in the archives a thread from a few months ago, without a definite answer: https://lists.chirpmyradio.com/hyperkitty/list/users@lists.chirpmyradio.com… Maybe in the meanwhile others have found which alternative model works best? Thank you in advance for your suggestions. Massimo Nespolo, from France.

Yaesu FT1500m Programming
by Drake Rebar 02 Feb '25

02 Feb '25

I have the cable and can get the radio into programming mode, and I'm running the latest CHIRP software on my computer. I've got the right port selected but when I hit transmit to clone the radio over to the CHIRP software, I get an error on the radio and a no response from the radio on the software. There is not much documentation on this that I am able to find. Is there a fix for this or something I have missed? Thank you in advance!
