Hello, I'm a big fan of Chirp however I recently acquired a TYT TH-9000D (220). I heard I can apply a patch to Chirp in order to get it to work for the TYT. I realize this is a beta thing. I'm looking for instructions on where to find the patch and how to install it. Thanks,Frank

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-B5, NAK'd block
by Niall Parker 06 Feb '15

06 Feb '15

Hello, I'm using CHIRP with a couple Baofeng UV-B5 radios and both give the same error when uploading: RadioError: Radio NAK'd block at address 0x0f10 ------ Clone failed: Radio NAK'd block at address 0x0f10 Clone thread ended --- Exception Dialog: Radio NAK'd block at address 0x0f10 --- None The radios seem to program OK though, haven't noticed any functional issues. Didn't see any bugs like this listed, nor any way to file a new one, is this the appropriate place ? Running chirp daily from the PPA for Ubuntu 12.04, any other info needed ? ... Niall

[chirp_users] "Unexpected response" from Icom IC-2200H
by Mark Crummett 05 Feb '15

05 Feb '15

Trying to use CHIRP 0.4.1 to program an Icom IC-2200H. All I can get is an error message- "Failed to communicate with the radio: Unexpected response from radio." I don't think it's a driver problem. FTDI cable is recognized by the computer as COM5. A similar cable on COM4 works fine with a UV5B. Should the radio be on any special settings? I tried the Clone mode; that didn't seem to make any difference. Could there be an issue with the speaker port? (Probably outside the scope of this list.) I'm new to this; am I missing something? thx, Mark KG7NZQ -- Mark Crummett Portland, OR

[chirp_users] Baofeng/Pofung GT-1
by Response 05 Feb '15

05 Feb '15

Hi: Can the Baofeng/Pofung GT-1 be programmed using Chirp? It looks like a much improved version of the BF888s. I’m going to order a couple of these from Amazon to check them out. If I plan to keep them and you need a radio to use to set them up, I could send you one. Best ’73, AE8R Jim

[chirp_users] UV-B5 does not ACK programming mode - remote debug of return value?
by Richard Menedetter 05 Feb '15

05 Feb '15

Hi list I have a Boafeng BF-F8+ und a UV-B5. The latter can't be programmed with chirp. It gives me the error "radio did not ack programming mode". The BF-F8+ works with the same cable on the same computer. The UV-B5 works with the Baofeng SW. So I read that the UV-B5 seems to "change identity" according to the menu settings. But I cannot get it running. (tried to set everything to frequency mode) Tried to reset the UV-B5. Changing compander is not possible, as this option was removed from my UV-B5 firmware ... Tried to download the beta from the list welcome message, but only get a 404: http://chirp.danplanet.com/download/beta/ Tried with the last stable Chirp and with a daily from early february. Would it be possible to either try to remotely debug what my UV-B5 is sending and include it into chitp or maybe give an option to ignore the return value from the handset if UV-B5 is chosen? I am quit sure the actual communication would work, if Chirp would not give up on the unknown ACK signal from the handset. I would be very glad if I could use chirp to import the BF-F8+ settings into my UV-B5. I hope that we can work this out together! CU, Ricsi

[chirp_users] Icom 92AD Read issue?
by Bryan McWhirt 05 Feb '15

05 Feb '15

I'm using the current daily build for OSX and the memory of the 92AD is reading fine but it's not reading any of the DSTAR information in the DSTAR tab. It looks to me like it's hanging on the getting bank information as that is the status message "[0] Getting Bank Information". Both band A and Band B memories are loading fine. It's everything else that is failing. I'm using the PL chip because when I use the FTDI chip, chirp is unable to read anything it just gets errors for every location. Does Chirp need more than just TX,RX,GND connected on the FTDI? -- KB9YEN Bryan McWhirt bryan(a)kb9yen.com

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-5R Cloning
by drsenn＠frontiernet.net 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

I have 2 UV-5R's purchased on separate dates. Chirp will upload from either radio but will not download the other radio. The "oldest" 5R is firmware BFB307, the "newer" 5R is N5R2401. How can I copy Chrip data from one to the other. The error msg is "Image is not supported by the radio". Thanks in advance for any help. DavidKD4ZHI

[chirp_users] How in the world . . . .
by DocBeattie . 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

How in the world did you people get a ham license if you can't read? The instructions to unsubscribe appear on every message list. The majority of issues about chirp and your radio can be answered by reading either the radio's manual or the Q&A area of the web site. Did some sit beside you giving you the answers on the license test? Or, did you just pass your test by luck? Just wondering.

[chirp_users] Thanks to all
by tom 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

Many thanks to the developers, contributors and chirp users that post to this group. After reading many posts, following the instructions at Miklor website, and home building a simple serial port to MAX232 to rj45 adapter, it works perfectly on my TM-281A Kenwood. The discussion here helped me decide to purchase new batteries for old W2A hand-held rather than try the latest small imports which were offered here for 35$ Canadian. Overall, I'm grateful for the information on this list, and expect to find many useful bits of information to help along in the hobby. Best regards and 73's. Tindaro VE3KZJ

[chirp_users] FT-1D Cable Question
by n4lbl 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

If I understand right FT-1Ds originally came with an SCU-18 cable (my case) and later they changed to the SCU-19. Does that matter to Chirp? I intend to run Chirp on Ubuntu 14.04. The drivers fo SCU-18 and SCU-19 are different for Windows. thanks,,, Alan,,, n4lbl

by Ed Mowles 02 Feb '15

January 24, 2015 I am a new user of Chirp. First few time I uploaded my list to the radio it worked fine. Now it is having trouble wih the names matching the Frequency? I tried to change it from names to channels' and still had a problem. It wants to populate the same channel or name to all the frequency. I removed Chirp and re installed It with the newest updated version. no change? I set the BaoFeng 82 back to default and re uploaded the chart from Chirp, still no change. Created a new file, still no change. I can't find out how to correct this.

Re: [chirp_users] Correct radio choice in CHIRP, Baofeng UV-5RTP
by D.J.J. Ring, Jr. 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

Sam, I just looked on the page you gave and UV-5RTP is *not* listed on the page. I used the "find in page" (control f) twice, it is not there. *BF-F8HP* is there. See list pasted here. It is the ONLY high power radio "HP". BF-F8HP *(in daily builds)* *Also includes the BF-F9V2+* *Also includes the GT-3TP* *Also includes the UV-5R TP* BF-F8HP is also listed in my version of chirp-daily which I haven't updated for a month and a half. CHIRP daily-20141210 What should happen is that the CHIRP main page should have UV-5RTP listed under BF-F8HP. Oh, I see it now, it is listed as UV5R TP - there is a space between UV5R and TP, that's why "find" could not find it. So there you go the page tells you to use BF-F8HP - so everything agrees, right? I'm posting to the CHIRP List so they can see the resolution, your answer to the list also please. 73 David N1EA On Sun, Feb 1, 2015 at 9:08 AM, Sam C <kd0pld(a)gmail.com> wrote: > CHIRP does indeed list support for my model: > http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home > > It is right on their home page listed as I pointed out before. > > Also, the dealer I purchased from stated that the UV-5R programming > software was correct and the poster of the video below, reviewing the > UV-5RTP shows a different software version, VIP for UV5R, working. > > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUv92tJk_8s > > I noted a comment below the video sy=stating that the correct radio drop > down is not the UV-5R as the name implies, but the BF-F8HP as the firmware > would indicate. > > Thanks for your help.

[chirp_users] Looking for TYT TH-UV3R images
by Eric Allen 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

Hey folks, I've discovered a new firmware revision for the TYT TH-UV3R (TYT calls it the TH-UV3R25 in their software) that supports 2.5kHz channel steps and possibly a few other features, as well. I'm working on getting CHIRP to discriminate between the two radio versions, and I need your help. If you have a TH-UV3R, can you please send me a .img file to (ag6ie(a)wolak.net) downloaded from your radio? If I get enough of these together, I should be able to pinpoint the spot in memory that determines the version number so that we can make the support for the two versions seamless. Also, if you've attempted to program a TH-UV3R with CHIRP but the memories on the radio were blank or scrambled, then you're in luck: the next version of CHIRP should have full support for your radio. Thanks! -Eric AG6IE

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-20150130 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #320 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Add updated Hungarian translation from Attila HA5JA [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [VV-898] Add Settings to Leixen VV-898 Module - Part 10 Add the following settings: - Squelch Base Value (UHF) - Squelch Base Value (VHF) related to #2149 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [VV-898] Add Settings to Leixen VV-898 Module - Part 9 Add the following settings: - DTMF Digit Time - DTMF Digit Space Time - DTMF First Digit Delay - DTMF Pretime - DTMF * and # Digit Delay - DTMF ACK Decode - DTMF Side Tone Corrected spelling error in Part 7 related to #2149 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [VV-898] Add Settings to Leixen VV-898 Module - Part 8 Add the following settings: - VOX Gain Level - VOX Delay Time - VOX Inhibit on Receive related to #2149 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [VV-898] Add Settings to Leixen VV-898 Module - Part 7 Add the following Key Assignment settings: - Long Press Time - P1 Long - P1 Short - P2 Long - P2 Short - P3 Long - P3 Short - M Short - Menu Enable related to #2149 [K. Arvanitis <kosta(a)alumni.uvic.ca>] [PATCH] Dismissing save confirmation dialog was closing tab A typical gtk Dialog will return a response of RESPONSE_DELETE_EVENT when the dialog window is dismissed. As a result dismissing the save confirmation dialog was performing similarly to the user selecting the NO button (RESPONSE_NO) This created a situation where a person could possibly loose their changes should they dismiss the save confirmation dialog without using the cancel button. The fix essentially handles both the CANCEL and DELETE_EVENT responses as the same. Bug #2255 [K. Arvanitis <kosta(a)alumni.uvic.ca>] [FT-60] Memory Bank Link Scan Added settings support for memory bank link scan. Extended bitwise int data element to support xor operator. Note: The mbs settings are stored in the 16 bits located at memory location 0x09E in the high order bits. Note: A bank can be linked even if it contains no memories. In this case the radio ignores it during the mbl scan. Bug #675 Bug #1945 [Jens Jensen <af5mi(a)yahoo.com>] [th9800] fix skip scan/priority issues #2247 Skip/priority settings were not taking effect. Channel fields were for display only. There are special channel banks controlling scan enable and priority. This fix manipulates both channel fields and bank flags. [K. Arvanitis <kosta(a)alumni.uvic.ca>] [PATCH] Fix Context-Menu Handler in Memory Editor This patch modified the behaviour of the button event handler for the memory editor to properly select the underlying elements of the treeview when using the right mouse button. Fixes #2249 [Jens Jensen <af5mi(a)yahoo.com>] [th9800] clarify channel display mode #1353 change "Frequency or Name" boolean to "Display" choice of Frequency or Name [K. Arvanitis <kosta(a)alumni.uvic.ca>] [PATCH] Fix Link in About Dialog The URL link in the about dialog is now functional. Tested in both Ubuntu and Windows 8.1, verified working. Replaced the MessageBox dialog for the 'Documentation' help menu item with a hotlink to the website. The URL link in the MessageBox was non- functional on Windows and overall it did not provide much information outside of the link anyhow. Bug #330

[chirp_users] serial port monitor?
by Rob Locher 29 Jan '15

29 Jan '15

Hi all, I believe I've found a CHIRP bug, er I mean an issue. When I try to "Download from Radio" with my ID-880H, I get an error almost immediately: "Failed to communicate with the radio: Unexpected response from radio". I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 and the 2015-01-23 daily build of Chirp. I use the same USB-to-serial converter to troubleshoot hardware devices regularly using minicom, so I'm confident it's not a permissions problem. I'm able to use the Icom software to program the radio (after booting the netbook into Windows, ugh), so I don't think it's an issue with the radio or the cable. I checked to see if I have the latest firmware for the radio, but there haven't been any updates. Before I report the issue, I'd like to gather as much information as I reasonably can. If there's a relatively simple way to capture the traffic on the serial port, I'd like to do that. I did some Googling, and all the methods I found seemed complicated. Of course there might be a much easier way, like setting a debug level. So I ask the group, is there something reasonable that I can do to log the activity on the serial port before I report my issue? 73, - Rob W7GH

I bought a SECUDA USB Programming Cable For Icom Radio ... 1-pin 122-053 from Amazon. It has a PL2303TAchip in it. I used the PL2303_Prolific_DriverInstaller_v1.10.0 from the vendor. I used the vendor's program - checkChipVersion_v1006 – and it recognizes chip in cord on COM3 When I use CHIRP to try to download the current frequencies on the radio, I get the following error: "Failed to communicate with the radio: Unexpected response from radio" Any help would be appreciated, even if that help tells me that I need to contact the seller, Sundely @ Amazon about a bad cord.

Causes RX to be normal, but when duplex=off, no TX and ERROR displayed along with beep. Note: Minor cosmetic side effect is that display indicates negative duplex offset, probably because 0 is always < rxfreq. This may be unavoidable unless we can find an actual channel flag which is designated for tx inhibit. Also added channel field "reverse" to map.

[chirp_users] Offsets change when downloading to CHIRP
by Michael Sonnenblick 21 Jan '15

21 Jan '15

I have a TYT TH-UV3R. When I download my channels from my radio to CHIRP, CHIRP changes some, but not all, of the offsets. I first enter the frequencies into CHIRP and upload them to my radio. I check my radio and the offsets are correct. Then I download the frequencies back into CHIRP and see that the offsets have changed. If I were to re-upload them to my radio, then the wrong offsets would be uploaded. So anytime I need to add a channel, I need to redo all the changed offsets. As I mentioned, not all offsets are changed, but the ones that do change change whenever I download my channels to CHIRP.

Arvanitis <kosta(a)alumni.uvic.ca>] [PATCH] UI Change to Settings Edit Window This simple change removes the uncessary padding of the treeview; as well as connecting the "changed" event to the treeview. By listening to the gtk event we are able to handle selection changes of the treeview which supports all input types and not only the left mouse click. Bug #2179 [K. Arvanitis <kosta(a)alumni.uvic.ca>] [BUG] Fix Range Exclusion Issue with Bank Editor Memory Bounds ranges are specified as inclusive of the first as well as the last; while python 'range' is inclusive of the first and exclusive of the last. As a result the BankEditor was not including the final memory slot within the devices capable bounds, this fixes the issue and aligns with the behaviour of the MemoryEditor. Bug #2175

by chaplainblack＠centurytel.net 11 Jan '15

11 Jan '15

I am wanting to buy a Baofeng Radio and am looking at the new Baofeng BF-F9 V2 Does anyone on the list know if CHIRP will work for this radio Is there anything I would need to do specifically to make it compatable One dealer said it should work but I am not sure if that is true or not. thank you all, Ron in WA KA7MUB

Thanks. I'm aware of the limitations. I can program the frequency into memory directly into the radio but I'm looking to do that within Chirp. The program attempts to "protect" me. There used to be a method to change the limits by swapping out the control database for the radio but the architecture has changed and that doesn't work any more. I'd really like to be able to disable those checks. - David >On Thu, 8 Jan 2015 20:48:01 -0500, Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com> wrote: >On Thu, Jan 8, 2015 at 7:17 PM, David B.

Re: [chirp_users] Who used CHIRP in linux ubuntu mode ?
by D.J.J. Ring, Jr. 08 Jan '15

The poster, y_61 says that he bought a new cable from Baofeng through Amazon.it, and the cable works fine in Windows but when used with the Chirp Live CD based on Ubuntu with upgraded CHIRP to DAILY CHIRP (20150102) with GTK 2.24-10 Pyton 2.7.3 PYGTK 2.24.0, connecting the cable results in the Baofeng UV-5R (BFS 297) going into TRANSMIT mode. The poster, y_61 does not understand why the same cable is working with Windows but not with Ubuntu CHIRP Live CD. The poster, y_61 does not confirm that the version of CHIRP used on Windows is the same DAILY CHIRP or other. Does anyone know why the Baofeng UV-5R is going into transmit. The poster, y_61 does not state at which moment the UV-5R goes into transmit.

[chirp_users] Special Mode?
by David B. Horvath, CCP 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

I want to be able to program in frequencies that aren't in the normal HAM range. My intent is to monitor those frequencies -- I'm not planning on transmitting. I realize this isn't a good choice but better than carrying multiple radios. I can program these frequencies by hand but the software tries to "protect me from myself".

[chirp_users] Yaesu FT-8100?
by Eric Allen 06 Jan '15

06 Jan '15

Hey folks, I recently picked up a Yaesu FT-8100, and I'm looking to program it with CHIRP. Has anybody else given this bad boy a shot? It looks to be programmable, so I'm hoping to adapt the CHIRP support for one of the other Yaesu mobiles, but I'm hoping maybe it's actually easier than that.

[chirp_users] UV-5R Says "Radio did not respond"
by Richard Dillman 02 Jan '15

02 Jan '15

I'm in a bit of a quandary. I volunteered to program a friend's UV-5R using Chirp, which works a treat with my UV-5RA. However when I try to download from the UV-5R Chirp complains that the radio did not respond. Since all is well with my own UV-5RA I assume the software/driver/cable are not an issue. I'm using Chirp Daily Build 20150102. All guidance will be much appreciated... especially since I promised to deliver the radio tomorrow!

[chirp_users] Looking for N5R-213BFB297 image.
by Simon Wex 14 Dec '14

14 Dec '14

Hey All, First of all, thanks so much for your wonderful radio community resources. I'm new to all of this, but just screwed up and so I've started actually learning! Using Chirp, I uploaded an image from one of my radios onto the same model UV-5RA radio with different firmware (oops). I now can only receive on that radio if holding the mon button. I think I need to upload an image downloaded from a radio with the same firmware and then import my local frequency list using my CSV export. The problem is, I can't find a chirp image with the right firmware version. The radio lists it as "N5R-213BFB297". I see at http://kc9hi.dyndns.org/uv5r/programming/CHIRPrecovery/ there are both N5R-213 and BFB297 images separately. When I try to upload the BFB297 image using the latest daily Chirp software (chirp-daily-20141210), I get this message: "Upload finished, but the 'Other Settings' could not be sent because the firmware version of the image ( Ver BFB297 ) does not match that of the radio (N5R-213BFB297 )." If I use the N5R-213 image, I get the following error: --- Sending Magic: 000: 50 bb ff 20 12 07 25 00 P.....%. Ident: 000: aa 36 74 04 00 05 20 dd .6t.....

Is it not the DATA cable rather than the CAT cable you need to clone an FT-817? Nigel A.

[chirp_users] Chirp and virus alarm
by Pedja YT9TP 12 Dec '14

12 Dec '14

Just for the record: I just tried to download latest daily build. Avast blocked connection claiming it is malicious, infected with Win32:Evo-gen. Tried to download both install exe and ZIP file, both were blocked. I disabled Avast, then downloaded and installed Chirp latest daily build, but when I enable Avast it does not allow Chirp to run, still claiming it is infected by Win32:Evo-gen. However, the latest stable build http://chirp.danplanet.com/download/0.4.1/chirp-0.4.1-installer.exe was not recognized as malicious and is not blocked. It downloaded and installed with no problem. I guess this is false alarm but quite annoying. Pedja YT9TP --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

[chirp_users] New Daily Build
by Build System 10 Dec '14

10 Dec '14

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-20141210 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #308 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Add test image for Sainsonic AP510 for #2095 [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] Add support for Sainsonic AP510 APRS tracker. #2095 The Sainsonic AP510 is an integrated single-channel VHF radio and APRS tracker. This patch adds support for configuring all of the parameters of the AP510 (one channel and lots of settings). [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] Add bool cast and improve charset options in settings. For #2095 Previously, tests could not be done on RadioSettingValueBoolean values. This patch adds bool casting / test support so that checked boxes test True and unchecked boxes test False. RadioSettingValueString supported setting the charset, but only after initializing the value. This fails if the value contains characters not in the default charset. With this patch, the charset can be set during initialization, so when the value is set, it is tested against the appropriate charset. Changes for Build #309

[chirp_users] ALINCO DJ-X10
by raymond reese 09 Dec '14

09 Dec '14

I echo the interests of the following message! However, I am the proud owner of the Alinco DJ-X10 and it is also difficult to program. Maybe, if enough Alinco owners speak up and if there is someone out there who can program CHIRP to accept the functions of those radios, I would do the "happy dance" or an old fashion Irish jig. Thanks for all that CHIRP is so far! Ray Reese KD7KRH ==================================== Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2014 17:58:03 -0400 From: James McLellan <bordenhouse(a)gmail.com> Subject: [chirp_users] Radio request To: <chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> Message-ID: <002201d01268$e0428920$a0c79b60$@com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I would be very grateful if you could add my trusty old Alinco DJ-V5 to the radio interface list. RT Systems <https://www.rtsystemsinc.com/alinco-handheld-radio-programming-software-s/1 857.htm> used to have a program for this radio but it has been long since discontinued and they're not interested in discussing it. The radio is robust and feature rich but, as with most handhelds, a nightmare to program manually. Thanks, Jim McLellan K5BAA ====================================
