[chirp_users] Pofung P8UV programming
by eric.fort＠fortconsulting.org 27 Jul '23

27 Jul '23

A friend of mine, not knowing any better acquired 2 pofung P8UV radios, FCC ID: 2AJGM-P51UV. The fact that the FCC's own website ( https://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid ) shows no record of this ID (though interestingly https://fcc.io does?!!!!!, now who owns FCC.io?) leaves me a bit concerned..... But that's another topic. I'm trying to figure out how to program these to at least listen to other things than the channels they came with. The supported radio's list says P8UV _(use Radioddity UV-5G)_ but that does not work. I get "Error communicating with radio, Radio did not respond.". That said, I have verified the correct serial port being used and followed the directions about turning the radio on and off, etc. The radio is on and everything plugged in as far as I can tell properly but I still get the above error after repeated attempts. Chirp works fine programming my ANYTONE UV5888UVIII. Ideas, Thanks, Eric

[chirp_users] Using The Keyboard On Radio List
by K0LNY 25 Jul '23

25 Jul '23

Hey Group, I'm sure most folks here use Chirp with the computer's mouse or touchpad, but there is an annoying thing with the keyboard, and I'm hoping those who develop Chirp might be able to address this, and I wonder if it is annoying to others. I wouldn't call it a bug, because I'm guessing most users haven't experienced it. But in the radio model list, when I'm down arrowing to find my model, a dialog pops for every model, and reads: Experimental driver Tested and mostly works, but may give you issues when using lesser common radio variants. Proceed at your own risk, and let us know about issues! Do not prompt again for Yaesu FT-25R OK * So this dialog is okay, but in prior Chirps, it only popped up once you selected your model and clicked okay. I'm guessing that most people typically just roll their pointer to the model and then get that message just one time. But when your model is 10 models down the list, it is quite annoying to have to uncheck the box and then okay. Can this dialog be moved to after the okay is clicked on a model, like it was before? What do others think? Thanks. Glenn A man with a clock always knows what time it is. A man with two clocks is never sure. -- A derivative of Segal's law

One thing or another fixed it? That's how I fix stuff. It often solves the problem. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Rich Gilbertson <na7rg(a)email.com> To: dsmith(a)danplanet.com, chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com Cc: Discussion of CHIRP <chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Can't print data Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2023 18:21:53 +0200 Well, Went to duplicate the problem, but first loaded the latests version of Chirp_Next.Also Microsoft update was waiting so ran the update too.Now all is good. Printed for both my Baofeng and my Anytone tri band mobile.I dont know which but one thing or another fixed it.Guess I dont need the log now, Thanks all for the help. 73Rich Sent: Tuesday, July 11, 2023 at 3:15 PM From: "Dan Smith via chirp_users" <chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> To: "Discussion of CHIRP" <chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Can't print data> I completely re programmed all my channels. I want to print the list. I can get the page preview just fine. But when it goes to print, an image flashes on screen and disappeared. I can't see what the image is. Sounds like a bug, but it's hard to say why. Can you open a bug and attach your debug log from after the print fails, and include whatever file you're working from as well? https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/How_to_report_issues Thanks! --Dan _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users This message was sent to Rich at na7rg(a)email.com To unsubscribe, send an email to chirp_users-unsubscribe(a)intrepid.danplanet.com To report this email as off-topic, please email chirp_users-owner(a)intrepid.danplanet.com Searchable archive: https://www.mail-archive.com/chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com
