[chirp_users] UV-9R Plus?
by d＠deutrino.net 10 Feb '24

10 Feb '24

Hello, I'm confused about the status of support for the UV-9R Plus. It's not listed as supported, but I've seen people discussing programming it anyway. What I was unable to figure out is which driver they are using? Does anyone know if this model has pitfalls for use with CHIRP? Thanks-

[chirp_users] CHIRP ?
by Ed Mylotte 10 Feb '24

10 Feb '24

I don't understand WHY or HOW to use CHIRP. What will it do for me, a new ham? How do I combine or integrate it to my ham operations? How often does one NEED to employ it? It appears important, but can I just forget about it? Are there any other options available? V/R Ed, AD9AK

[chirp_users] Kenwood D74 MEM_FORMAT Oddity
by Jacob Lewallen 09 Feb '24

09 Feb '24

Hello all, I was reading over the Kenwood D74 code in https://github.com/kk7ds/chirp/blob/master/chirp/drivers/thd74.py and noticed something peculiar with the MEM_FORMAT specification. Looking closely at the channel information starting at offset 0x4000, by my math each of the channels takes up 40 bytes. This, combined with the 16 bytes of padding for each "group" places 6 channels in one 256 byte page, preventing channels from spanning pages makes sense to me. Then, there are 210 groups/pages. This is where things get odd. 210 * 256 = 53760, plus the offset of 0x4000 places the end of this region at 70144 (0x11200), which overlaps with the "names" section that starts at offset 0x10000. Am I missing something? Thanks, Jacob

[chirp_users] Problem with Baofeng settings
by David Garth 03 Feb '24

03 Feb '24

I have had three other Baofeng UV-5R radio and had no problems programming with Chirp. I’m using the latest Mac Chirp version. But, I just received a new UV5R, and, after downloading from the radio, creating a frequency list, and then uploading, I’m not able to get to the settings page. I get a blank page and an error message. (See attached.) I tried a menu “reset all” and a three-button “factory reset” to no avail. Any ideas?
