Settings content problem
by Lofgren, Charles 08 Dec '24

08 Dec '24

I'm trying to fix the missing 222 mHz band problem with my Radioddity UV-5rx3, and I've gotten these directions from Chirps' Issues section: Without a copy of an original image (or at least one that wasn't blanked, the best I can offer for you is to do the following... 1. Save the Radioddity_UV-5RX3_20230722(factory).img file that I just attached to a convenient location on your computer 2. Start CHIRP 3. Load the image file that was saved in step 1 into CHIRP 4. Click Settings -> Advanced Settings 5. Click in the field for the bottom Range Override Parameter setting 6. Type CTRL + A to highlight the whole field 7. Type the Delete key to empty the field 8. Manually type in UseAtOwnRisk (do not copy-and-paste from your browser) 9. Upload to your radio 10. Restart CHIRP My problem is that when I go to the Advanced Settings tab, I don't find the indicated Range Override Parameter. The Settings tab itself is at the top of a column on the left side of the screen. I've seen several YouTube videos where the Chriip Settings tab appears about the middle of the screen after some preliminary material. The Settings option on my screen seems to have different content. How do I get to the right version of Settings? Thanks, Charlie

Vertex FTL-1011 on Next
by Mark Phillips 05 Dec '24

05 Dec '24

I'm guessing someone already knows this but I tried programming a recently received Vertex FTL-1011 using the latest build of Next and it did not work. I tried on both Linux and Windows to no avail. The initial read crapped out instantly with an error message. Trying it with Legacy worked just fine on both platforms. Should I report this to the developers list? Mark NI2O

Out Of Supported Range Error for BaoFang UV-5RH Pro Max
by robboere＠hotmail.com 17 Nov '24

17 Nov '24

I'm currently setting up a UK-5RH Pro Max which is able to monitor around 6 frequency bands as well as having the FM Radio function available on many UV-5Rs. I've been trying to set-up a number of additional FM radio frequencies in the range of 88.8 MHz to 107.5 MHz for stations in and around London here in the UK. These frequencies can for the most part be found on the FM radio function, but they can't be named with the built in FM radio scanner - so was seeking to create these as a set of defined channels in my configuration file. I have created these as a CSV and have loaded them into Chirp as a CSV import. However I don't seem to be able to insert them into the configuration file for the handset. Unfortunately, I receive the message "Some memories are incompatible with this radio" and specific errors such as "Frequency 96.400000 is out of supported range" for all 60 that I'm trying to insert. I have added other frequencies from 108 MHz onwards and there are absolutely no problems with these - so am sure that the method I'm using to add these is correct. It seems to just be the question around adding any frequencies below 108 MHz and the Chirp configuration and/or the Radio not accepting them. I've checked the radio and I can scan all of the ranges outlined below, so the radio is capable of receiving on those ranges: - 65-108 MHz FM RX - 108-136 MHz AM RX AM Air Receiving Only - 136-174 MHz FM TX/RX - 220-260 MHz FM TX/RX - 350-390 MHz FM RX - 400-480 MHz FM TX/RX - 480-520 MHz FM RX I have used both the Baofeng UV-5RH and Baofeng 5RM but neither of these allow these frequencies to be added to the listing. I was keen to have FM radio channels with names and direct selection via the channel selection capability, but it seem that this isn't possible. It means that I'd need to scan anywhere where I am and hope to guess what the radio station is. Would anyone know why the software (or Radio/Profile) isn't allowing me to add these frequencies?
