by Rich Carlson 12 May '15

12 May '15

Evening, I'm trying to find the "Import from stock config" functionality in CHIRP and I don't see it anywhere. The only 4 choices I have are: Radioreference.comRepeaterBookprzemienniki.netRFinder The CHIRP FAQ page indicates "These are canned frequency plans, some of which are built into chirp." Where do I find this "Import from stock config" functionality? Please advise.

[chirp_users] Chirp experience with IC-T70A?
by Nicholas Papadonis 12 May '15

12 May '15

Hi Folks, Has anyone had success with the IC-T70A and Chirp? I tried downloading from the radio today using Chirp daily, however received the "Failed to communicate: unexpected response from radio" message. I have a Prolific 2303 cable. I believe this is an authentic cable because the Windows default drivers are auto detected it and are installed properly. I also tried down reving the driver to the 3.2.0 version (which is been said to support counterfeit chipset) and I keep getting an error downloading from the radio. Windows 7 device manager says the COM port and Prolific driver is ok, I'm suspecting something else is going on. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks, Nick KB1GZN

[chirp_users] doesn't see the UV-5RA
by Stanley Rarden 12 May '15

12 May '15

My problem, and I understand it's a pretty common one, is when i plug the radio in and try to load into Chirp from the radio, my computer doesn't see the radio. I've tried with the cable that came with the radio, cables I've purchased on line with some sort of little CD that's completely useless, and even with the cable from RT Systems. I have two of those, by the way, and neither of them works. I've tried this on a PC laptop running Windows XP and an iMac running OSX. Nothing works. Downloaded the latest version of Chirp, got the trick utility that's supposed to make it all work on mac... nothing. Is there any hope here at all? Stan Rarden KK4LLR

[chirp_users] BAOFENG DRIVER
by Carl Payne 11 May '15

11 May '15

I spent two weeks trying to find a driver for my Baofeng BF-F9 V2+. I determined that I had to use one for BF-F8hp. I was lucky enough to find one. Chirp worked great. My Computer crashed and I have not been able to find a working driver since. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. Any help will be appreciated. Carl Payne payneconsultant(a)bellsouth.net

[chirp_users] Saving by column order?
by Al Jones 09 May '15

09 May '15

I've an Baofeng UV82L and have been using chirp to program it without problem. As I've found different repeater / agency frequencies I've been adding them to the end of the table. I can sort them by frequency or name to eliminate duplicate entries but would like to be able to save to the radio in the order that I'm viewing them (probably only by frequency). Is it possible to do this and, if I may ask, how could it be done? //al
