[chirp_users] Alinco DR-135 Reset
by Kevin Pietriyk 21 Feb '12

21 Feb '12

Hello, I have an Alinco DR-135T (MkI) that is stuck in "Channel" mode. I can download/upload data to the radio, but I need to reset the radio to "Frequency" mode. This needs to be done in software, as Channel mode locks out button resets. I had a DOS program that would change radio settings, but it does not work with the new USB cable I have. CHIRP seems to not have a radio settings dialog. Any advice? I can program the radio with CHIRP, but I'd like to be able to enter frequencies in the VFO if needed. 73, Kevin N3UPM

[chirp_users] Daily builds on ubuntu
by Ed Stewart / KB3WRX 19 Feb '12

19 Feb '12

I installed Chirp from a tar.gz file and it didn't show the Yaesu 857d, so I removed it. Then reinstalled it by adding ubuntu ppa, but do not see the 857d in the Yaesu selection. Did I do something wrong or isn't in the uuntu build?? Ed -- Stop organized crime. Re-elect no one.

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-02182012 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #22 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Squelch some debug left in the Win32 COM probe patch [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix detection clash between Puxing PX2R and Icom IC-W32A [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Rename the test images according to the new dynamic registration convention [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Dynamic driver registration This patch gets rid of the big silly static definition of the driver directory and replaces it with one that is populated dynamically. When multiple people are working on a driver, it's often the case that patches will conflict because they both made edits to the directory listing. Further, it makes it harder to add/remove a module during development because you have to edit the directory. This patch introduces a "register" decorator in the directory module. Any driver claiming to implement a radio driver can decorate that class and have it automatically included in the directory. Thus, simply placing mydriver.py in the chirp module folder will cause it to be included. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Sort the vendors and models in the clone settings dialog [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Don't use GTK to show the menubar, else the mac integration library won't integrate it. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] MacOSX system menu bar integration Note: this will only work after yet another update to the runtime Changes for Build #23

If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily// A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #12 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] [ftx800] Slightly increase the upload delay to hopefully alleviate some timing issues reported by some users [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix crash if no language is specified by the system [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix some untranslated column names that were preventing the column rendering functions from working properly when in non-English languages. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] [csv] Fix get_raw_memory() [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Prototype compatibility support for Python < 2.6 machines. This does some sneaky tricks with gettext and the __builtin__ module to skirt the fact that older python versions don't have str.format(). [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix win32 installer .exe permissions (finally) and clean up the build directory when we're done. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Make the Win32 platform driver enumerate serial ports instead of just providing the static list. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Long-overdue temp directory labeling on win32 build [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix win32 build to actually build the locale files [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] For some reason, win32 cygwin bash was using an incompatible builtin find which was causing problems with build locale. Use /usr/bin/find explicitly. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix chirpw invocation so that it won't allow the environment to override a manual language selection. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix the MacOS property list file to use a captialized icon file name. Without it, MacOS just silently ignores it. Sigh. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix the chirp.icns file so it shows up full-width in 512-pixel mode [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix MacOS bundle properties file and update the launch script for the new non-X11 runtime. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Add MacOS .icns file for app bundle

[chirp_users] Need an OSX tester
by Dan Smith 15 Feb '12

15 Feb '12

Hi all, The OSX builds have been broken since the translation stuff was put into the tree, but I only realized this a few days ago. I've got a new OSX runtime built with the following differences: 1. An updated python environment 2. GTK built with native Quartz support (X11 is no longer needed!) 3. An OSX-like theme that makes Chirp look a lot more "normal" on MacOS I need one or two people who are willing to install the new runtime and help me test a build. If you're interested, please email me directly and I'll get you the stuff. Thanks! -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS
