11 Jul '20

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-20200711 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #626 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Refine the fix for anytone778uv with no (or incorrect) memory loaded The test framework will load the driver with random garbage if no test image is present to probe sub-devices. This can cause spurious failures of the band probing, so make it a little more tolerant. Related to #7947 [Iain White <ig99ig(a)yahoo.com>] Change FTM7250D driver class FTM7250Radio _model = "AH52N" to "AH75M" Fixes #6525 Changes for Build #627

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-20200710 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #625 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix ic910 driver when not initialized with a serial connection During things like the make_supported.py tool, or opening a file, we initialize the radio drivers without a valid serial connection. The ic910 driver can't detect the presence of the 23cm unit in these cases (only the former, since it's a live radio), so just protect against that here. Related to the fix for #567 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Unregister ftm7250 because it conflicts with detection for the ftm3200 Related to #6525 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix pep8 violation in the fix for #8007 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [UV-5XP] Add support for Baofeng UV-5XP Add alias to BF-F8HP to include UV-5XP Add support detection for "HN5RV" firmware to basetype Updated how driver supports radio models with 3 power levels fixes #6725 [Iain White <ig99ig(a)yahoo.com>] Add new driver for the Yaesu FTM-7250D radio based on the FTM3200 driver Fixes #6525 [Rudolph Gutzerhagen <rudolph.gutzerhagen(a)gmail.com>] tooltip-editor-tab completes #8007 o tooltip on editor notebook tab for full-path information. - aids in distinguishing entries with same short name. [Rudolph Gutzerhagen <rudolph.gutzerhagen(a)gmail.com>] tooltip-recent-files completes #8007 o tooltip on recent files menu for full-path information. - aids in distinguishing entries with same short name. [Rudolph Gutzerhagen <rudolph.gutzerhagen(a)gmail.com>] LOG-message-translation completes #2347 o LOG messages are marked for language translation. There are only a few instances of this remaining in the source code. This marking for translation is removed. o Most of the informational print messages that were converted to logging, follow the convention of logging in English, without any localization. Some of these print messages were swept up in some localization work. This patch brings changes these logging messages to using English for logging. [Kosta A. <ve7kcy(a)gmail.com>] [ic-v86] Adding support for Icom IC-V86. Fixes #7231 [Martin Cooper <mfncooper(a)gmail.com>] [icomciv] Add support for the Icom IC-910 radio Fixes #567 Add the IC-910 as a new live mode radio. * Includes support for the optional UX-910 23cm unit. The unit adds a third bank of memories to those for 2m and 70cm. The driver detects the presence or absence of the unit in order to determine which banks to present to the user. * Includes support for special channels. Previous Icom live radios have not implemented support for special channels. Infrastructure is now included so that they could do so with minimal effort. * Should also fix #5023. The duplex offset field was being ignored for the IC-7100 and was declared incorrectly. Including duplex offset support for the IC-910 necessitated fixing this. Fixes #567 Fixes #5023

[chirp_users] Update on ANYTone 7787uv no TX on UHF
by John KI4RO 09 Jul '20

09 Jul '20

Well, I've been pecking away at it and finally solved the mystery. At first it would seem to have been some kind of antenna issue so I switched over to my Arrow and had the same results....about 1 microsecond of TX and then gone. This all seemed to have started after I first loaded the memories using CHIRP. I didn't deliberately change any parameter that would stop TX on UHF but apparently there is one. I went to Function Memory 18 which allows the rig to be reset in one of two ways. The first way is a complete reset of every parameter and clearing the memories back to factory default. The second way will clear the parameters and leave the memories in tact. That was the way that finally let me start transmitting again on UHF. I am unable, at this time, to see these parameters but obviously something had to go back to factory default. hi hi Had to make a run to Huntington WV today and, of course, no one answered with whom I could try out the rig hi hi Maybe next time 73 John KI4RO

Just got it all programmed up using CHIRP and it transmits fine on 2m but will not do anything but blink for a microsecond and then go back to RX. Any ideas would be appreciated 73 John KI4RO

[chirp_users] AnyTone 778UV

Just got the programming cable for this rig and, of course, CHIRP worked perfectly hi hi I noticed that there is no SETTINGS tab available. Is that by design or is it coming in the future? Only reason I noticed is that the Baofeng package has it available. 73 John KI4RO

[chirp_users] radio software available
by ekdesign1 25 Jun '20

Hi. I recently purchase a Baojie BJ-318 that is not supported by Chirp yet, but I did get the software for it. Unfortunately it is cludgy and does not import or cut/paste line by line either, but I wanted to provide a dropbox link for it for anybody who got the radio without software or for Chirp reverse engineering, if possible. Regards. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zowwpsch9kbll05/318%20Programming%20sofware.rar?d…

[chirp_users] Help needed with error statement
by kenneth lung 24 Jun '20

24 Jun '20

Hi everyone and I hope that all are healthy!! I have a Baofeng BF-F8HP radio I am having a minor problem with. I hope someone has seen this problem and found the correction for it. Baofeng BF-F8HP Comm channel 3 Use Chirp “Radio” – “Query Data Source” – “Repeater Book” – “RepeaterBook political query – “State (VA)” – “County “Cheaspeake” – “Band (2 meters) Once that is all input, I get this “error”………….No data found If I do the same but use “County (All)” I get 163 repeater listings. I can import those successfully but I would much rather just use repeaters in my area of operation. Any suggestions?? Thanks, Kenny L KD4HQQ Sent from Mail for Windows 10
