[chirp_users] Help with Baofeng UV-5R V2+
by Matt Wachala 30 Dec '15

30 Dec '15

I am trying to clone my new Baofeng UV-5R V2+ and my programming cable is up to date and I just so happened to download the newest version of chirp today and now I can download or upload anything from or to my radio. Even from my old radio it won't do either. It worked about a week ago. Now it won't do anything. Please help... Thanks. Sincerely, Matthew Wachala

[chirp_users] Cable for use w/CHIRP and iCOM ID-51A
by Daniel Sohn 19 Dec '15

19 Dec '15

Greetings: Can anyone point me at the correct cable to buy, build or modify so that I can ** using OS X 10.11** (happens to be .2 now) program iCom ID-51A HTs with CHIRP? I’ve searched some and tried the RT Systems generic Apple FDLI update to no effect wrt to using the RT System cable w/OS X. I have several other options for programming ID-51s however it would be convenient if I could set up their non-DStar Freqs in somewhat similar arrangements to the many Baoefengs that are popping up like … well you know what, to facilitate CommT support for local ARES/RACES units. Goal is to create libraries of .csv files for various types of local & regional support/event/agency combinations and efficiently have identical Channel names or #s to expedite implementation of IACs in the field. If anyone knows what would also work as an actual radio to radio ‘cloning’ cable for the ID-51s I’m interested in that too. Ditto this for Baofengs in the UV-82/UV-82HP series. Many Thanks 73 & pax …dan WL7COO

[chirp_users] Problem configured Sainsonic APR510 APRS with latest daily chirp
by Tim Miranda 13 Dec '15

13 Dec '15

Hi - I apologize if this has been asked and answered. I got my Sainsonic APR510 APRS device up and running today using the manufacturer's config software on my win7 laptop, but I heard that daily-20151212 version of CHIRP had support for changing the "settings" of this device, and since I love CHIRP, I thought I'd try. Unfortunately, no matter what combination of power-on/power-off/disconnect/connect, I couldn't get it to succeed when doing a Radio->Download from Radio. My com port is COM4, and I know that works with the manufacturer's web site, but when I try to Download From Radio with CHIRP, it appears to start the download, make it almost all the way through (according to the progress bar), but then a popup shows "An error has occured: '00'" and it fails to download. [image: Inline image 2] Any ideas? Tim

Thanks Jim, It now reads the radios memories without errors and Band A stops at 799 however, there are a couple of minor issues. 1) In Banks(Band A) tab it still reads 0 to 849, no errors but I would expect errors if i tried to upload the file to the radio. 2) The status bar continues to display "[0] Getting Bank information for memory 399". Incidentally, I installed the latest daily of the windows version in Unbuntu but find it still reads all the way to 849. no error messages, but hasn't read Banks(Band B), Bank Names(Band B) or D-STAR Thanks Wenlock VK3YWB

Using the latest build of CHIRP, I had a problem saving the system image of my new BF-F8HP. CHIRP returned the “incorrect model selected” error when I chose BF-F8HP, so I tried UV5R and was able to upload the system image. I wrote back to the radio using this file and it is causing problems. I am looking for a uncorrupted system image for my firmware. These are the returns I am getting from the radio now: Power+3= BFB297 Power+6= 141006N CHIRP-Other Settings= HN5RV01 Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Steve P

You did yourself the problem. CHIRP uses radio model numbers for a reason. You most likely will have to remove everything and start over.

I wrote most of the FT-2900 driver, and I'll maintain it as needed. It has been pretty stable for quite some time now, and I've had good reports from people who have used it, so I'm confident it's basically working, but there's probably room for improvement. Thanks, David, for the suggestion about the lock button. I haven't tried that, and I'm away from my radio right now, but there may be something I can do to the driver to make it at least give a better error message when that situation is encountered. Al: If you can download from the radio, then your cable is almost certainly working. Downloading requires communications in both directions. There's a remote chance that the cable length, impedance, or some other analog characteristic is such that it's producing intermittent problems, but I doubt it. If it's not the lock issue which David suggested, then contact me off list, and send me the file you're trying to upload. I'll take a look and see what I can discover. --Rich, AG6QR ag6qr(a)sonic.net > > Al, I don't know if this is your problem or not but it is something to > check.

[chirp_users] Adding CHIRP to chocolatey package manager
by Philip Arola 09 Dec '15

09 Dec '15

Hello everyone, I use chirp on my Baofeng UV-5R, and noticed that there is no entry in the Chocolatey repository for Chirp. Chocolatey, for those who don’t know, is a package manager for Windows. It is third-party, so it is fully free and open source. If you want to look at it yourself it is at https://chocolatey.org// I was wondering if there would be any opposition to the addition of Chirp to the repository. I would be able to add it myself, and am willing to maintain the repository entry. --Philip Arola --KG7VAM --philiparola(a)hotmail.com Sent from Mail for Windows 10

Hello, I just joined this list and I am pulling out my hair trying to figure out why CHiRP won't upload to my new Yaesu FT-2900r. I am on my third cable. It is a Valley Enterprises FTDI cable using the proper driver software. I can download after following the procedure to hold the A/N Low button in while powering on the radio then reading from radio. I have great success with using CHiRP with all my other radios, but the FT-2900r cannot be written to. Please, any thoughts. I tried looking at a CHiRP forum, but something was wrong with my account. Thank You, Al

by rcook 09 Dec '15

09 Dec '15

I'm new to this list and want to thank you for creating CHIRP and for licensing it under the GPL. A "thank you" is also due to all who wrote the Kenwood TS-2000 support. CHIRP has replaced Mac Memories Manager for use with my TS-2000. I am hoping to put some time into [attempting] to create modules for a Yaesu VR-5000 and an Icom IC-PCR1500. These are just personal itches and I'm not going to ask someone else to do the work :) Thank you, again. Respectfully, Ron Cook n1zhi

[chirp_users] Distorted Chirp interface on OS X 10.11 "El Capitan"
by Thomas White 07 Dec '15

07 Dec '15

I'm having installation problems on Mac 10.11. I've installed the python runtime and have the chirp-daily-20151201 build. I managed to the the proper cable drivers for my Wouxun KG-UV6Dv2. The problem is that the user interface of the Chirp window is not drawing correctly. The buttons and controls are ver oversized and the window is structured in a way that makes it unusable.

[chirp_users] Yaesu VX-5r Uploading Issue
by AJ Pulley 05 Dec '15

05 Dec '15

Can anyone help? I keep getting a “Clone Error” message on my HT’s screen about three quarters of the way through the upload to the radio. I won’t list everything I’ve done because I have no issues uploading to my FT-8900R. The cable I am using is made by Valley Industries, as is my other radio’s cable. The driver has been downloaded for MacOSX, the Python software is installed, and the radio’s battery is fully charged. I’ve additionally gone through the settings of each column to verify that there isn’t a memory that has an unacceptable input, such as an out-of-range Tune Step. I’m confused presently. -AJ

[chirp_users] TYT programing software
by Rick Hanzlik 01 Dec '15

01 Dec '15

I just purchased a TYT ThUV3R with the idea of using it for 220. It seems that the only way to activate the 220MHZ functions is to program it using the manufactures software. I down loaded verion 3.2.0.0 of the prolific driver and the manufactures software but when I try to access the radio, I will see the RW--COM displayed on the radio and I get a message the tells me to check the cables. However, I can program the radio using the latest daily CHIRP software without any problem, but it will not program the 220MHZ range. I realize this is the chirp group but I'm hoping someone can give me a suggestion as to how to make this all work. Rick Hanzlik N7NGK Sandy, Ut

[chirp_users] Feidaxin radios support on sight
by M.Sc. Pavel Milanes Costa 27 Nov '15

27 Nov '15

Hi to all, There is anyone in the list with any of this Feidaxin radios? FD-160A FD-450A FD-460A Or just can borrow one for a couple of hours? I just submitted a patch to the developer list with support for the FD-268A/B and FD-288A/B that is waiting for review and approval. But I noticed with some hacks that the mentioned radios (FD-160A, FD-450A, FD-460A) have a very high chance of being supported with just cosmetics changes to the driver. If you have one of this radios and want chirp's support for it, please contact me for instructions on how to help me on this. Thanks in advance, CO7WT.

[chirp_users] IC-92AD Download - too many memories
by Wenlock Burton 25 Nov '15

Still trying to figure out what's going wrong here, double checked the A band has 800 memories (0-799) and Chirp (running in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) is reading 0-849 then has a problem retrieving name data for memory 849. This prevents it downloading the memory names and D-Star settings. Windows version running in Wine is reading 0-799 for the A band and retrieves all data OK. Thanks Wenlock VK3YWB

[chirp_users] Problem updating CSV file to upload to radio

18 Nov '15

Hi: Radio: Baofeng F8HP and UV-5RV2+Computer: Dell, Win XP Professional I am able to clone both radios and make changes to the radio download and update if I manually change the data When I was trying upload a CSV file to the radio I got an error - shown in the attached file I developed the csv file from outputting a csv file from the RepeaterBook website. I was able to open it with MS Excel 2000 w/sp3 (also I was able to open a csv file from Chirp from my radio download. Trying to import the csv file from the Repeaterbook directly into Chirp, gave me the error I then used the scv file from my radio download and modified it with the data from the repeaterbook file by copying and pasting my new data from Repeaterbook csv file into the radio downloaded csv file. I saved this new combined data file with the same columns as shown in my radio downloaded csv file but when I tried to import to the Chirp program, I got the same error. Any idea what I am doing wrong? I know I have old programs and operating system but I have been able to run Chirp successfully for all things except this.

[chirp_users] FTM-350AR - Chirp
by chirp＠son4r.com 15 Nov '15

15 Nov '15

I'm wondering if anyone else has had issues using Chirp with a Yaesu FTM-350AR radio. I haven't been able to get chirp to download the radio config. I am using a FTDI cable and windows 10. I was not able to find FIFO settings to disable. Apparently this release of the driver doesn't have the ability to easily disable FIFO? I've tried two cables, running chirp in admin mode. Passing the usb cable to windows 7 VM didn't work either. Same cable was used to upgrade the firmware to 1.6 on the radio. Seems to have worked fine. Radio is in programming mode. Head disconncted from the body. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Just doesn't connect. RADIO: Yaesu FTM-350AR Cable: Startech ICUSB2321F Alt Cable: Tripp-Lite Keyspan USA-19HS Any help would be appreciated. Michael

[chirp_users] Trying to read 849 memories?
by Wenlock Burton 11 Nov '15

11 Nov '15

HI, After more playing around with it I don't understand why Chirp is trying to read 849 memories for Band A. Band A only has 799 memories. I entered memory range 0 to 799 and clicked Refresh, it read 799 memories, but on clicking Banks (Band A) it tried to retrieve bank information for memory 749. So the range doesn't apply to the Banks tabs and Chirp reports errors and wont read any more from the radio until I close and open again. At least it's talking to the radio but doesn't seem to know how many locations to read. Thanks Wenlock

Trying to program FT897 running win8, the prolific driver is good, I can use my other cables to program baofeng radios fine. the cable for the 897 when plugged in results in no errors, I have the latest Chirp daily build installed. when trying to download from the radio, it does not communicate at all. I set the baud rate on both the radio and the com port to make sure they are the same no luck, any other ideas for things i can try? sorry if this is dupe, the first one i got a bounce thanks

[chirp_users] UV-B5 question
by Lamar Brown 11 Nov '15

11 Nov '15

Hello group! I got a UV-B5 and I don't have any problem down loading radio to computer and then uploading program to the UV-B5. But this is what happens, if I have a repeater that has a "-" on the offset, the radio will take it and after you use it one time, the radio will by itself change all the "-" to "+" on every repeater that is in the radio. Is there any help for the radio or just use it for all the repeaters that have a "+" for the offset? Lamar KT4DLB

[chirp_users] inexpensive Dual Band Mobile radios?
by bill＠riess.us 10 Nov '15

10 Nov '15

As Shon, K2QT mentioned I agree that the Baofeng UV-82 series is a good choice at a low cost. They have a good build quality and have a higher duty cycle than the UV5R series. (My UV5RV2+ failed during a long rag chewing session, the UV-82 has done fine with similar sessions.) For about $15-$20 more, the UV-82HP has higher power. 7 watts as opposed to 5. For a dual band mobile, the Anytone AT-5888UV has 50 VHF and 40 UHF Watts and provides dual watch and some other features, but is ~$290.00. There are others in that price range, but the above is the only one I have experienced. The low cost radios are lower wattage (which may not matter depending on expected use), I don't know anyone that has one - so cannot comment on the quality. As you mention, if you move away from dual band, Yaesu, Kenwood, etc. can be had for <$175. Hard choices, good luck :) 73 Bill Riess Bill(a)BillRiess.com <mailto:Bill@BillRiess.com> Or Bill(a)Riess.us <mailto:Bill@Riess.us> P: +1 847 394 5312 C: +1 847 917 8479 Callsign: KW9WR

[chirp_users] UV-5R Woes
by Lamar Brown 09 Nov '15

09 Nov '15

I have tried to program the UV-5R with Chirp and finally find out that I had to use a different model number to be able to even get the radio to upload to computer. I have added all my channels to the radio and downloaded to radio thinking that everything is fix. I can key the HT and it don't key the repeater. If I have it on channel mode, it shows both +- above the frequency display. It will drop the frequency down 0.600 like it suppose to. Ok if I have it on frequency mode , it shows - and drops down the 0.600 as its suppose to. Still don't key the repeater. I have a Baofeng UV-3 and it keys the repeater, I have a Yaesu FT-250 and it keys the repeater. I'm at my wits end on trying to get this HT program. If someone can please tell me what to do I will really appreciate it. Danny KT4DLB

[chirp_users] No VFO mode in VX-2r
by bill＠riess.us 09 Nov '15

I think the problem might be that you have turned off access to Memory Mode and/or the menu somehow with CHIRP. I don't have the VX-2R but try this as it seems to work with a number of different radios: 1 - Export your channel settings to a spreadsheet 2 - factory reset the radio 3 - Download a new image from the radio (preferably while in channel mode) 4 - Save the image for possible later use 5 - Import the channel settings from the spreadsheet (or load the spreadsheet and copy them to the new image) 6 - Save the new image 7 - Upload the image to the radio Please see the CHIRP documents for any steps you are not sure how to do.

[chirp_users] Help with Chirp and Alinco DR 235
by Deane Bouvier 05 Nov '15

I have good communications between the computer and the radio. It reads and writes successfully, except ... I get an error message on write even though the radios says "PASS". The error message is " An error has occurred. Failed to communicate with radio. 'Serial' object has not attribute 'read'." I did a full reset, downloaded and installed the latest Chirp version and it still says the same thing. I am running Windows 7. The other strange thing the radio does now is that it shows empty channels with the VFO contents and the 'M' blinking when in the memory mode. That hasn't happened before. There is nothing in the menu settings related to this and I cannot find anything regarding this new feature in the manual. Any help would be appreciated. N5DQ

[chirp_users] FT-60 and CP2102
by Steve Whitehead 02 Nov '15

Turns out it looks like most of the CP2102 USB adapters are 3.3V output. Specifications for TTL logic is 5V. I have ordered a CP2102 that has both so we'll try that and see what happens. In the dim times (when we used a kerosene lamp to illuminate our computer screens) a common practice was to use a Max232 to convert RS232 levels to TTL for programming radios when you did not want to purchase a $40 cable from RT systems. It was often hit and miss if the radio would work because the levels were sometimes not quite right..... Should have the different CP2102 this week and report back. >Thanks for the response Jim.
