[chirp_users] USB Error using Ubuntu Mate
by Monte Long 26 Aug '19

26 Aug '19

I'm using Ubuntu Mate on my laptop to run chirp. I keep getting an error: “Errno could not open serial port /dev/ttyUSB0. Errno permission denied /dev/ttyUSB0” I can open a terminal and type in "sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0" and it solves the issues for that session. But, the next time I boot up the laptop, I have to plug in the cable, then go to the terminal and re-do the chmod command. Is there a way to get that to stick permanently? Thanks! Monte

[chirp_users] UV-5RIII Programming issue
by NT4K JC 18 Aug '19

18 Aug '19

New to this list and having a problem programming my UV-5RIII - Tri-band BaoFeng, 2m/1.25cm/70cm. I downloaded the latest version of Chirp and did a download from the radio for a template. When entering a 1.25cm frequency I receive a pop-up. (Error setting memory: Frequency 224.820000 is out of supported range, Tx freq 223.220000 is out of supported range.) The radio had a few 220MHz frequencies preprogrammed in memory. Chirp will not let me change one of them to my desired frequencies. When using a new, default template I receive the same error. I've tried importing the desired frequencies from a .csv file to an .img file and get the same error. It's possible Chirp is not recognizing the radio. The UV-5RIII is not listed as a UV5R variant. Although, the Chirp software settings downloaded from the radio indicate the "VHF Lower limit: 136Mhz" and the "VHF Upper limit: 260MHz" Never had an issue with other UV-5R or the UV-82X Any help is appreciated. Thanks 73 NT4K JC Pluto 1930 - 2006. Orbit in Peace,
