[chirp_users] OSX and the TH-D72 with CHIRP
by Mark Cohen 22 Apr '11

22 Apr '11

Greetings, I've had an interesting ride with CHIRP so far! I'm glad it's being worked on.. My question is two fold.. 1. Has there been a patch for the TH-D72 2. Does this patch include support for the serial device (cu.SLAB_USBtoUART) that is presented to the OS when the TH-D72 is plugged in? I'd love to not have to use the Kenwood application on Windows if at ALL possible! 73 de K6EF

by Justin Mann 21 Apr '11

Hi there, I don't suppose that there is anyway to get chirp to use the actual aqua interface that is native to the mac is there? Unfortunately Voiceover the screen-reader in the mac doesn't work with anything that is using .gtk Thanks,

[chirp_users] How to load under Linux?
by doc＠kd4e.com 20 Apr '11

20 Apr '11

I was referred to CHIRP from the Kenwood TH-D72 list. What are the dependencies to run CHIRP in Linux, please? I have downloaded and uncompressed CHIRP. I generally use the Fluppy version of Puppy Linux (it's optimized to be full-featured, small, and functional on Netbooks, Notebooks, and desktops). Thanks! -- Thanks! & 73, KD4E David Colburn http://kd4e.com SE-GA Tailgate - April 9th, 2011 Have an http://ultrafidian.com day I don't google I SEARCH! http://ixquick.com Shop Freedom-Friendly http://kd4e.com/of.html

[chirp_users] Latest version Chirp with Wouxun KG-UVD1P
by John Wilkerson 09 Apr '11

From what I can see at this point, the software and radio play well together. It appears previous difficulties have been solved. Thanks Dan! Your software allows me to program ALL my radios now :) Will check out my Icom(s) 2100 and 2200. From what I can see the Wouxun addition is fine :)

[chirp_users] [CHIRP] #81: Linux RPM may be missing support files
by CHIRP Tracker 09 Apr '11

#81: Linux RPM may be missing support files --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: n0so@… | Type: Bug Status: new | Priority: Functionality Milestone: | Component: Import/Export Version: | Keywords: Platform: Linux | --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- While attempting to load a previously saved .chirp file for my IC-92AD, the error message "Schema missing" was displayed and the file failed to load. This occurred when running version 0.1.11b4 installed from the yum repository on a Fedora FC14 Linux system. Running from the chirp source directory, the error did not occur and the file was able to be edited, saved and uploaded to the radio. The rpm file in the yum repository is apparently not able to access some of the necessary support files, or the files are missing. As a work around: run chirp from source until another RPM can be uploaded to the yum repository. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac/ticket/81> CHIRP <http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/trac> CHIRP Development

[chirp_users] CHIRP Windows XP Executable?
by W4ZAU 09 Apr '11

09 Apr '11

My OS is W-XP/SP3. I just downloaded the latest version of Chirp for Windows. Assuming the executable was chirpw.exe I "clicked" on same. I received the error message below. After clicking on OK about three times a window opened up that looked like it might be the application - common drop-downs at the top, etc. However if I clicked on "File" or any of the drop-downs, I got the same error message. Anybody run into this or did I miss a step - though I downloaded and installed twice, just in case? TNX in advance for any suggestions. Dave W4ZAU

[chirp_users] CHIRP 0.1.11b7
by Dan Smith 05 Apr '11

05 Apr '11

Hi all, I just posted v0.1.11b7 with the following changes: - Add Icom IC-W32A support (Thanks to Daniel for the loan) - Add Icom IC-T70A support (Thanks to John for the loan) - Fix the CSV driver ignoring D-STAR fields. Unless anyone can find a show-stopper bug in this, I'm going to release it as the official 0.1.11, hopefully before next week. If you're an "official tester" for a specific model, please, now is the time to give your "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" on this version's ability to work with your radio. Even if you're not an official tester, feel free to run through these tips and let us know how it works for you: http://chirp.danplanet.com/content/testing-guidelines Thanks! -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS

[chirp_users] chirp 0.1.11 and Kenwood TM-V71A
by KE7FJM 04 Apr '11

04 Apr '11

Hello, nice to see support for the Kenwood TM-V71A, I downloaded 0.1.11 and tested it on a netbook running Ubuntu (10.10). The download feature worked great, it figured out my radio type and did the right thing. I saw the note live update and save a CSV copy, edited it and when I tried to upload the CSV file to the radio, it detects my COM port just fine, senses a Kenwood radio, but defaults to 'Generic' and does not let me change it. An upload attempt fails complaining about not being able to connect to generic. Is this know? If not I can log this an issue and can also test any updates if you need a TM-V71A tester. Bill KE7FJM

[chirp_users] TH-F6A Help
by joe camilli 03 Apr '11

03 Apr '11

I have a Kenwood Th-F6A and I am using W7 64 bit. I know for sure the program is communicating with the radio because I can DL the current memories with any problems. I then following these instructions: When done you have to import the file radionew.csv by clicking on Radio --> Import from File. The pop up window requests you to either mark or uncheck the checkbox at the different memory locations or select either all, nothing or inverse and click OK when you want to proceed with the import. Otherwise click at cancel. Save the import save the file as mynewradiodata.img using the File drop down menu. Upload the file to your radio using the Radio --> Upload to Radio Clone function. Enjoy the new settings of your radio! And end up with the following error: Thanks Joe N7QPP
