[chirp_users] Yaesu FTM-3200D
by Kenneth Strom VA3KRS 27 Jul '19

27 Jul '19

Regarding programming the Yaesu FTM-3200D, I use the RT Systems ADMS-M3200/3207 software & USB-29F cable. The radio cannot communicate with CHIRP directly, nor can it read the CSV file I created from their software using all the correct settings. Tried every method(s) and did not work.

Your cable is probably not seated correctly in the radio. You may need to shave some of the plastic around the connector to get it. Common with some cables.

I have some software and cables from RTsystems and I have used their cables for many years and have never had any problems with them. Jock. KC6IIH On Friday, July 26, 2019 Nigel A.

By trial and error, I discovered that the FTM-3200D goes into CLONE mode by holding in SETUP and then turning it on. Also, by trial and error, I found that the FTM-3200D went into TRANSMIT mode to the computer by starting the Chirp Download from Radio, and then pressing REV on the FT-3200, whereupon the radio went to TX mode and began to count up, and Chirp also showed that it was downloading data. The process finished, the radio went back to CLONE, but Chirp returned a checksum error. Chirp does not display any radio data after the failure. To sum up, the radio is happy that it spoke to Chirp, but Chirp is not happy with what it heard, probably at the end of the exchange. Does anyone know how I can get past this error message?

[chirp_users] Programming Baofeng UV-9
by William Thompson 23 Jul '19

23 Jul '19

I'm helping a group program their new radios. They have Baofeng UV-9, not 9R, but UV-9. There are no manufacture labels except in the battery compartment. It appears to be a UV-5R variant as it incorporates the Kenwood standard 2-pin plug and a 5R spkr-mic works with the radio. I'm using the same cable that I use with my 5R but the radio fails to respond to Chirp no matter what radio model I use in the Baofeng and BTECH listings. Is there a preferred for this radio. By the way, it doesn't show a firmware version on power-up. 73, William

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-82HP Programming Issues (MacOS Mojave 10.14.5)

I am having issues using CHIRP to program my brand new Baofeng UV-82HP. I have an FTDI cable and am using a Mac (MacOS Mojave 10.14.5) and CHIRP 7.13.2019. I have zero problems with downloading from and programming to my BF-F8HP, but the UV-82HP will not work. Every time I connect to the radio and attempt to do the original image download, the radio restarts itself, and then CHIRP then gives me “Radio did not respond” error. Brennan J.

[chirp_users] Can't Upload to BTech VV-5X3
by Dave Hartman 22 Jul '19

22 Jul '19

I don't know if this is a Chirp issue or a winDOZE 10 issue. Back in March 2019 things worked great. Today 7/21/19 I downloaded the chirp-daily-20190718-installer.exe and attempted to install it. I got several unable to write file errors. So I downloaded it again and tried to install again but with the same problem. So I uninstalled it, and installed the chirp-daily-20190319-installer which had worked just fine last last March. Again no joy. With either version I can download from the radio without issue but just can't upload to it. Next I'm going to uninstall it again, using Revo Uninstaller reboot my machine, and try it again with my Wouxun KG-UVD1P. If anyone has had this problem, please let me know how you solved it. Thanks! -- Dave - AC2GL All typing errors are my own work and subject to copyright laws, except errors by the spell checker which are open source errors.

[chirp_users] Kenwood TM-V7A problem
by William Mooney 13 Jul '19

13 Jul '19

I have a Kenwood TM-V7A connected to a Mac Mini running OS X Mojave 10.14.5. The cable has a FT232R USB UART chip. I downloaded the latest driver from FTDI and the latest Daily Build. The computer sees the cable, but CHIRP does not. Download from radio says no file. All was working fine before the Mojave upgrade. Help? Bill sends.
