[chirp_users] New Daily Build
by Build System 20 Mar '12

20 Mar '12

Greetings, A new daily build of CHIRP is available. This includes changes made directly to the tree yesterday, and may include additional features, bug fixes, and/or bugs. If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-03202012 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #40 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Merge with stable branch [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] [csv] Fix writing extra carriage returns in CSV files on Windows because of a peculiar behavior of the system CSV module. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] The RFinder guys changed their query mechanism _again_. At least this time it's sane. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] [ic9x] Finish the port by adding bank support [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Allow cloning data from another Memory() object [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Some type conversion routines for concrete bitwise types [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] [ic9x] Re-write the code that parses and generates IC9x frames to use bitwise. This is a long time coming, and it's significantly cleaner and easier to maintain now. Note that this broke bank support, but I'll follow up shortly with a fix for that. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix one-off error preventing us from properly updating the first column name in the bank membership editor. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Update RFinder driver to support their new super secret ultra secure authentication protocol. [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] Add option for hardware flow control (rtscts) for Radio drivers, defaults to off.

[chirp_users] can't upload to 2820
by Brian Mury 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

Hello, I'm having problems uploading to my 2820 (downloading works). The upload progresses until the CHIRP progress bar has hit 100%, and the 2820 progress bar has *almost* hit 100%, then the window with the CHIRP progress bar closes, and the radio just sits there saying "CLONE IN", and showing the progress bar a pixel or two away from completion. I'm forced to power cycle the radio, at which point it resets to factory settings. I'm running Fedora 16, and was using chirp-0.1.12-5.fc16 from the repository. I've tried upgrading to chirp-0.2.0-1.fc16, also from the repository, and am seeing the same problem. I'm using the data port, not the speaker port. I dug out an old Windows laptop and tried the Icom CS-2820 software - it works, so the radio and cable both work. This used to work for me. I haven't used CHIRP in quite some time as I haven't needed to make any changes to the radio's programming, so unfortunately I can't say when it stopped working. Here's the relevant portion of the output when run from a terminal: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Clone thread started Starting HiSpeed: 000: fe fe fe fe fe fe fe fe ........ 008: fe fe fe fe fe fe fe fe ........ 016: fe fe fe fe ee ef e8 29 .......) 024: 70 00 01 00 00 02 01 fd p.......

[chirp_users] ICOM 92AD
by James E. Wells (KDØAJZ) 18 Mar '12

OKAY... This is strange. I turned the radio off. Started the program. Told it to read the radio. It started to read the radio but it said error on each line. I turned the radio on and it went back and filled in where it did not read at first. In other words I had to turn the radio on after I started the download from the radio. I do not understand. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- James Earl Wells KDØAJZ Blue Springs Amateur Radio Club Output 444.950 MHz Input: + offset PL=107.2 Hz Output 147.015 MHz Input: + offset PL=151.4 Hz Member ARRL Jackson County-Missouri ARES

Re: [chirp_users] Wouxun KG-UVD1P connection
by Dan Smith 16 Mar '12

> I use the wouxun and commander programs on the PC Okay, it may be worth trying chirp on Windows, if you can, just to rule out any issues with the driver on MacOS. Part of the problem is that the chinese manufacturers regularly make multiple versions of the "same" radio that speak a different language or have subtle differences with no visual markings to distinguish them. If it doesn't work on Windows, then that may be biting us here. Also, if you could get and send the debug.log from the Mac, that will help us determine if it's not seeing any data from the radio, or if something more detailed is going on. Instructions for getting your debug log are here: http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/How_To_Report_Issues I assume you're using 0.2.0? -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS

I have been programming this radio on a PC with a radioshop888 usb cable and now wish to on a macbook lion osx. Installed python and chirp OK. Tried the latest prolific driver, terminal commands show it installed but network preferences only allow configuring it as a modem? Anyone got the details on how too get back on track? Thank you Geoff MacLean gmaclean(a)maine.rr.com 207-415-9044

[chirp_users] Yaesu FT-2600M

Will Chirp be able to program the Yaesu FT-2600M? The reason I ask is that a friend has given me one and I need to program it. Just wondering.

Quick note... Trying to import a file when I can get it to do it I get a message at the bottom that says: [366] Setting memory 1 and it does nothing but eventually it will say that the Chirp is Not Responding.
