[chirp_users] Desktop icon
by Marty Hartwell 04 May '13

04 May '13

Hi I have wondered about where and what file is the icon for the app? I have created a launcher as I have done before but don't now have the icon for Chirp. I actually am not real sure if it is in the correct place either. I got on the Chirp web site and followed the instructions for setting up the PPA but didn't see anything on the desktop, so I created one after finding what looks like the App in I think /usr/share sub directories. Is this correct or is there a better way? Marty kd8bj

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-X4: A-OK
by David Brunner 02 May '13

Hi All; I bought this little radio last summer at the hamfest in Plano, TX along with the Windows software and the Prolific programming cable. I initially installed the software on an old Windows Vista machine and programmed a number of frequencies without a problem. I recently got around to installing it on a newish Win7-64 box and had to do quite a lot of mucking with it to get the USB stuff working, but finally had success. I then downloaded Chirp (daily build) and it read the radio with no problem at all (as the UV-3R). So then I thought I would give Chirp a whirl on my Linux Mint Debian x64 laptop. Installed via Synaptic and it worked the first time without a hiccup. Woohoo! I had to run it as root (easily fixed, betcha) and it also saw the radio as a UV-3R. Now for my Kenwood TM-G707A's.... Very impressed! You guys are awesome! 73, David / KE0AZ Aurora, CO (DM79)

[chirp_users] MAC OS 10.7.5
by Chuck Alldrin 30 Apr '13

I'm running a Mac /OS 10.7.5 and can't get the computer to find the proper USB port. I've installed KK7DS Python runtime but no luck. When I try to read from radio, I get the setup window for vendor and model and port: but none of the port selections will work. Baofeng UV-5R What am I missing? Chuck Alldrin KN6JS Chico, Ca

I downloaded the latest daily build. Still trying to get it out of my computer. I shows as 10M, something really bad happened to it. I can't even send it to trash and I certainly am not going to run it.
