[chirp_users] Error
by Mark Miller 04 Sep '17

04 Sep '17

Hello Chirp, I recently attempted to install the driver for OS X. It installed correctly to the best of my knowledge. I then installed Python Runtime, then Chirp. I can launch Chirp, but when I try to download an image, I receive an error report. I speculate that it is due to the cable driver. The error reads: Radio did not respond. Do you have any suggestions? The installation was on an iMac. Your assistance would be appreciated! Sincerely, Mark Miller KE0MQQ markmiller196633(a)icloud.com.

[chirp_users] Submitting new requests
by John La 02 Sep '17

02 Sep '17

If interested in having a radio model included in CHIRP, a radio needs to be provided to a developer interested in working on the project. The official CHIRP website is: http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home Here's the procedure for requesting a new radio... If you would like to open a request, you would need to - Go to the CHIRP website. (link above) - Register to the website (upper right corner) - Select the Issues Tab and verify that the request for the new radio hasn't already been submitted. - If it's not found, select the New Issue tab and submit your request. - Check back periodically to review the status of your request. In most cases, a loaner radio is required so it can be backward engineered. _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users This message was sent to Michael Cole at mwhcole45(a)gmail.com To unsubscribe, send an email to chirp_users-unsubscribe(a)intrepid.danplanet.com

OK Chirpers, ran into a wall. I have an FT897 that has had the extended transmit, so I am using the NON US setting on the drop down. I can download fine. I downloaded the memories from the radio and saved that file, modified it and attempting to upload. Followed the onscreen instruction when attempting to upload.Tried all variations of clicking OK and pressing the A (RCV) bottom on the radio. Attempting all the above results in "An Error has occurred could not open comport 17,Error 5 Access is denied on screen And ERROR flashes on the radio. Something I have missed? Randy W4RTT

problem solved....chirp does NOT write the file to the disk unless you say overwrite the file and then save the file when you exit... seems to me once it writes to memory you should be asked if you want to save it....or the message should say something like "file mytestsetup.cvs has not been saved Do you want to save it now?" thanks for all the hints...

[chirp_users] Baorfeng transmit block while on reverse frequency
by Eric H 15 Aug '17

I program a lot of Boafeng uv-5r radios and have found an issue. I have a few channels I'd like to talk on and others I do not. If the reverse frequency function is turned on when on a channel you can transmit on, it will allow you to transmit on any channel in the radio. Is there a way to stop this from happening? You cannot access the reverse frequency option unless on a channel you can transmit on. Sent from my iPhone

[chirp_users] How to program.
by J. David Aten 09 Aug '17

09 Aug '17

While some festivals might have their own radios and license, many more, now days, go to a third party that leases radios, and applies for a temporary license. An example is WQXT583. They have 13 frequencies, 850 units, and will be using DMR digital radios. This is very common, as to radio type, and size of the event. So, to find the security frequency, out of all of those, can be very hard to find, and would require extensive listening to figure what each frequency is being used for. The event won't tell you.

[chirp_users] Baofeng 888 STE disable?
by â ¡â € ðŸ—‹ 06 Aug '17

06 Aug '17

Is there a way to disable the squelch tail elimination (~55hz tone) on de-key when CTCSS is used? It doesn't seem to be an option on the 888, but it is on other baofengs. In a noisy environment with no squelch end noise, it's hard to tell when the other person has de-keyed. I'm wondering if there's a way to import this setting from another radio profile to see what happens.

For instance I have 146.345 with 1.035 as the dup offset minus. after an update from a backup file it will set everything to 5000/default, even saved channels. Am I doing something wrong? Do you need me to send samples? Old UNIX programmer, happy to help if I am not too outdated. George

Wow, I joined mailing list as I figured this was a free program that we all work together to find solutions and make it more beneficial for all. However, I have seen nothing but folks complaining. Never ceases to amaze me how folks think they have the right to complain about things that are free. Instead of complaining, why not help work to a solution.

[chirp_users] FT-7900R features
by Russell Kinner 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

I’m using Chirp to program my Baofeng unit and wanted to do the same for my FT-7900R but have run into 2 items that I haven't found to control some minor items in the Yaesu unit. The basic frequency, tone and offset are just fine. 1. I’ve previously used RT Systems to program my FT-7900R and that software has a Hyper Memory that can configure the 5 buttons around the display (labeled 1-5). I can’t seem to find where to set that on Chirp. Is that available? 2. I cannot seem to set the display for each channel to frequency or Name. Again, that is available in RT Systems and I am guessing it is also available on Chirp but where? What I have works for the basics and I am glad for that but learning the software does take a little time. Possibly there is a tab I haven’t tried. *Rusty, WA8ZID*

Re: YOUR SOFTWARE IS JUNK Hey, ALL these individual that have the audacity to criticize need to take a step back and try to connect with their 1 brain cell... Maybe they can do better!!?? ... if not go and buy some dedicated programming software @ $100 a pop!! ...otherwise just zip it!! I have used CHIRP for many years, programmed MANY radios of different manufacture and always had my queries answered and questions solved by the team I think ALL the guy's that contribute to the development of this SUPERB piece of software are doing a sterling job and I wish I had half of the programming knowledge that these guy/girls have.

Does anyone have a very good relationship with the management of POWERWERX.COM? I have tried to speak to them about CHIRP but they are under some prejudice that CHIRP bricks radios so that they are unrecoverable. If someone knows the owner, I'd like to lobby for acceptance of this fine software with the object that they could persuade some companies to share programming data with the developers of CHIRP. 73 DR N1EA

Hello Mike, Thanks for the off-list direct reply (copied below). Others including myself are trying to help you but we don't get responses from you to help fix the problem that you are having. A screen print of your Device Manager showing the COM ports that are being recognized would help. You can upload such a screen shot anonymously to http://imgur.com. Just post the link they will give you. As you have just been told, your COM port is not being seen. Can you see your comport under Device Manager? What you wrote to me doesn't even make sense. i am going to spent my time with software that will not works > CHIRP works fine. It supports the COM port that you have. You haven't answered any question that has been asked of you, but you complain. If you want to answer some questions we can find what the problem is that you are having. Thousands of people use this software every day. A few have problems, but usually it is just an operator error. If you would like to write to the list calmly, we could help you find the error you have. Often it is a cable that is defective. Some cables do not fit in the radios. Often - with Windows - the user has purchased a cable with a counterfeit electronic chip in it they are based on the Prolific PL-2303 USB chip. Windows detects the chip and updates the driver, and the driver now updated won't work with the fake chip in the USB to serial port converter. There are suitable converters - they are based on the FTDI chip. Here is a USB to Serial Port converter that is FTDI based. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004ZMYTYC/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF… You've asked for help, people have responded to you, but you fail to respond to questions. Can you show us a screen shot of the Port being recognized by Device Manger? If it's recognized by Device Manager, it WILL be seen in CHIRP.

[chirp_users] totally confused
by Mark Blackwell 29 Jul '17

29 Jul '17

Brand new to linux, but just managed to get Linux to run with Ubuntu on a laptop and now trying to get Chirp. Right now the laptop has a problem with the networks. It can connect to a wifi, but nothing after that. Will likely just try to download on another computer and transfer Chirp over via a usb drive. When I read the instructions though, Ubuntu refers to something called a PPA which I do not see any information on what it is, what it needs, and not much about how its installed. It gives a couple of lines of code, but have no idea where it should be typed. To the real pros, this probably is so basic as to be assumed knowledge, but in my first 8 hours of linux its a bit overwhelming. I saw a live CD, but that looks like you must boot from the CD every time you need to use Chirp. Is that a practical and viable way to do it, even if linux is already installed? Any help is appreciated. -- Mark Blackwell markshamradio(a)pobox.com

Greetings, I have a Yaesu FT-2900 and was wondering if CHIRP is likely to include it in the already great list of radios?.....or if the is a variant already listed that will work with the 2900. 73's Eric

FT-2900 programming I had no success getting CHIRP to read the radio...looks like its not communicating with the rig. I am using Prolific 2303 with dedicated driver Windows XP and cable pin-out are correct. My unit is a FT-2900 but the CHIRP dropdown shows FT-2900R - FT-1900R could this be the issue? 73's Eric On Sat, Jul 22, 2017 at 12:00 PM, < chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> wrote: > Send chirp_users mailing list submissions to > chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > chirp_users-owner(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of chirp_users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

[chirp_users] Alinco DR235
by Deane Bouvier 19 Jul '17

19 Jul '17

I have used Chirp successfully with multiple DR235 radios in the past. Using the same good cable (OPC-478 + USB convertor) I get "Unexpected Response from the Radio" most of the time. On rare occasions it works. I downloaded the latest daily build with no difference. Can anyone explain what happened? Is there a work around? Did RT Systems plant a bug? Thanks, N5DQ

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-5R question - programmable memory channels
by Rodney D. Myers 18 Jul '17

18 Jul '17

Short of downloading the archives and plugging into mail client, and online search of archives is non-existent, I'll ask here. Never programmed more than 76 channels before. I grabbed all of the repeaters that border the Interstate I normally travel, which adds up to 144, at the moment. When programming the Baofeng UV5R it says a max of 127 channels can be programmed. I tried upping the number in the fields at the top of CHIRP, but that does not help either. What am I missing here? Thank you. -- Rodney D.

[chirp_users] power level column
by Glenn At Home 15 Jul '17

Hi, I am importing a new CSV file into my Baofeng BF-F9 V2 using the CSV file I made for my son's BF 8. I am using Linux (Ubuntu Mate) and the Orca screenreader. It reads all the cells, but I don't know which column is the one that sets the power level. I want all my channels to default to high. Thanks for any assistance.

[chirp_users] GT-3TP Radio not responding
by R J Bregenzer 13 Jul '17

13 Jul '17

When I first tried to use CHIRP to program my new radio checked the list and noted that my radio was not on it. So I used the GT-3WP radio notation in the info box thinking it would be close or similar since it had the same model prefix. But it didn't work and still got error messages. Recently I did some more reading and found the info about using model BF-F8HP to program my GT-3TP. This hasn't worked either, I still get an error. There is also a note that comes up saying that the driver for the radio is experimental and do I want to continue. I use the BF-F8HP radio in the info box then a few moments later the error box comes up that the radio is not responding. Is there a possibility that when I was first trying to use CHIRP with the GT-3WP radio notation in the info box, that it corrupted something in the radio making any other connection impossible? Thanks for any help or suggestions. R.J. Bregenzer KE8AET

Hello, I'm new to this list and am afraid I'm probably asking a stupid question, but I've searched through the website for about an hour and can't seem to find the answer to my issue. I am running the latest daily build and trying to program my new BTECH UV-50X2. When I try to download from the radio, I get an error that the radio did not enter clone mode. I'm attaching my debug.log file. Is there something I need to do to get the radio to enter clone mode? Thank you, Bryan

[chirp_users] Lexien VV-898/ Jetstream JT270 Channel Names.
by Gary Chambers 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Question: When programming my Lexien VV-898 with chirp, the alpha-numeric memory channel names get assigned to the wrong channels, always three channels off, channels 1,2 and 3 are assigned a generic name of A001, A002, A003 or B001, B002, B003 depending on which memory bank is selected. Although, the Ch 1 programmed name is assigned to channel 4, the channel 4 freq, offset, tones are correct. The radio uses the Jetstream jt270 software. Both banks share the same symptoms. Is there something simple I'm missing or a work around??? Gary Chambers KG5TQE Sent from my iPhone

[chirp_users] KT-8900 "extra ID wrong" issue
by Wm. A. Besore 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Jim, I have spent over an hour trying to sign on and "open an issue". I gave up. Here is what is going on. The "366766" is an internal passcode in the KT-8900 that was entered on initialization of the radio. By holding down the F-Key and powering up at the same time, the ability to enter a passcode is presented in the radio's display. When this screen first appears it shows six underscore lines. I assume these are analogous to spaces. But, I can't find any way to get the radio to accept six blank spaces in the passcode. It insists that six digits be entered. Than and only then will it finish powering up, show memory channel frequencies on the display and go into normal RX/TX operation. Also, I have tried to register with the CHIRP Forum by replying to the confirmation email. However, when I try to sign in it says I am not valid and that I need to register again. When I try to register again I am told that my signon and password are already in use. Catch 22. Thus, I have not been able to "open an issue". CHIRP works great with my Baofeng UV-5R, but it just doesn't like the QYT KT-8900. Thanks for your ongoing support, Bill Wm. A. BeSore - K0WB wmabesore(a)aol.com

Re: [chirp_users] No Data (John Laiosa)
by Christopher F. Beesley 07 Jul '17

Hello John, Chris here, a G4 for quite some time! What you and everybody else with data communications problems between their computers and their radios are missing is a USB interface. This business of having to use exactly the right cable, exactly the right driver from the dim and distant past, and in some cases having to modify the shape of either the radio or the data lead to make them fit, is an absolute nonsense and has been for many years. I read the emails to chirp-users and I would guess that at least 70% of them concern problems with data transfer. I will not be buying another radio with a data interface unless it is to the world-wide standard for USB, including both hardware and software. In this respect it is high time that the manufacturers of radio equipment dragged themselves into the 21st Century. I am not a fan of Bill Gates because of the damage he has done to computing as a whole over the last 40 years, but apart from the name, at least he got the USB interface right. I mean, fancy calling a digital communications interface 'Upper Side Band'!

[chirp_users] No Data

After multiple failures with the Mac, I decides to use my work Windows laptop. Got everything setup and working. However when I upload from the radio the spread sheet is empty. The radio indicates it is "waiting" and beeps when it is done, but there is nothing on the spread sheet. I tried uploading to the radio and that did not work either. It appears if the data rate and/or the connection is not correct. What I am missing? Thanks for the help. John N1BSO -- Sent from John's iPhone

[chirp_users] Baofeng GT-3TP - Programing difficulty
by Danny Mason 05 Jul '17

05 Jul '17

Hi, last month ago I purchased two of these radios and after attempting to program them with the provided software to no avail, I was introduced to CHIRP by a friend of a friend. He had just completed successfully programming two separate brand name’s of radios. However when we got to the Baofeng GT-3TP radios his luck to change. We have tried everything we could find on the CHIRP WEB PAGE but have never gotten beyond cloning screen, it says: “AN ERROR HAS OCCURRED”. We were using the BF-F8HP model selection and have followed every direction we could find, step by step and did so utilizing Windows XP, 7 and 10. Nothing worked for us! I am now on my own in trying to program these and am a beginner… So, can anyone advise me what to do next please? Thanks in advance, Danny Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10

[chirp_users] TS-2000 CVS imports fail...
by Allan 04 Jul '17

04 Jul '17

What am I doing wrong to program 100 Kenwood TS-2000 memories the easy way with Chirp??? I installed CHIRP daily-20170627 on Mint 18.2, downloaded my radio, wrote out a CSV file, constructed what I want, saved that CSV, and when I try to import it, via: start Chirp, start radio, DL radio: I see the existing memories fine. I import my CSV file: "There was an error during import: `?' is not in valid list: t: ['WFM', 'FM', 'NFM', 'AM', 'NAM', 'DV', 'USB', 'LSB', 'CW', 'RTTY', 'DIG', 'PKT', 'NCW', 'NCWR', 'CWR', 'P25', 'Auto', 'RTTYR', 'FSK', 'FSKR', 'DMR'] I click OK and Chirp appears to hang with the message: "Preparing memory list..." (I kill it after 10 minutes). I've looked at my CSV file: there is no '?' character in the file. I see nothing wrong (I fixed default values for rToneFreq and cToneFreq).

Re: [chirp_users] PL tone 146.3 not available to use
by Tom Consodine 02 Jul '17

That would not work. Being only 0.1 Hz off is well within the tolerance. All you would have to do is program 146.2 and they would be able to use it. You would need a frequency far enough from the standard ones that a decoder wouldn't recognize it.

OK, good point. So how about... Does anyone have a scanner or $10 SDR receiver that can listen on input! IF the PL is really 146.3, maybe that's for a reason, to prevent unauthorised use or just to block radios that weren't supplied by that manufacturer.

[chirp_users] PL tone 146.3 not available to use
by Kyle Colyer 01 Jul '17

01 Jul '17

Hello. I have a baofeng hp 82 and I used the older software to program it and it works great with our repeater. Then I got a btech 50 and downloaded the chirp software to program it but I cannot get it to work right off our repeater. One of the problems is that the pl tone box only has a drop down box and preset pl tones and ours is 146.3. I can't figure out how to put that tone in the chirp program. I have tried to manually input it into the radio itself and it won't work. I had this problem with the bf82 also before I got the software and programmed it with the computer instead of putting it into the radio. Can anyone help?

I would double check with the management company. 146.3 might work but there's no way to put it in any commercial radio. Commercial (Motorola, Kenwood, Yaesu and others) have no way to program in that tone frequency. Try 146.2 in your 82 and it should work just fine.

[chirp_users] Baofeng GT3 Mk2 - Offset display bug ?
by BRIAN OXENHAM 29 Jun '17

29 Jun '17

Using a Baofeng GT3 Mk2 Firmware version BFB297 and programming with latest daily build 20170627. If I manually programme a channel into the GT3 for accessing a repeater using the HT keypad all works as expected and the repeater offsets (entered via menu 26) are retained. If I use CHIRP (treating the handset as a UV5R) and upload the same repeater details to the HT, when I look at the HT via menu 26 again the offset display now only reads 000.000. However, the offsets, whilst not correctly displayed, are actually retained in the guts of the HT as I am still able to access the repeater ! B

[chirp_users] Kenwood TK-862G-1 programming for ham bad
by Jonathan Peakall 23 Jun '17

23 Jun '17

HI All, I am trying to program a pair of Kenwood TK-862G with the -1 designation for a repeater link. I can read and write to the radio. However, I can't set the frequency to within the ham band, I get an out of range error. One of the radios I have had a ham frequency programmed into it and I can read it and write it to another radio. I have searched for a setting but can't seem to find one that allows me to set the frequency to the ham band. Thanks! Jonathan - KK6RPX

[chirp_users] Incorrect Transfer of Names for Baofeng UV-5R
by Torbjørn Darre 19 Jun '17

19 Jun '17

You were correct that I needed to make a new account without the Ø in oder to installe in Window 10. Thank you for your quidance. I have a new cable and I am able to download and upload from the radio. I have a Baofeng UV-5R radio. This is the first time I do this, I wanted to make a simple data set with only 4 frekvencies in the table. I have activated in the settings that I want frekvency info in the top display (A) and name in the bottom display (B). When I transfer to the radio all the frekvencies are transferred correctly, however the name in the first line is transfered to line (chanel) 0, 2 and 3. Only the name in line 1 (chanel 1) is transfered correctly to the radio. Can you please advise what I need to do in oder to get the names to transfer correctly? -- Regards Torbjørn - LA8TP
