Re: [chirp_users] Second Attempt cant program my radio Uv82S35

Steve Prime, Uv82S35 is a different program than Chirp. It is the Baofeng software, available on Btech and other sites. Go to https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Download and download the version of Chirp that works with your operating system.

I use cables from rt systems. Never had one not work. On your cable bake sure it is seating all the way in . I have seen this problem on a friend's trying to help him get his Baeofeng UV - 5 R programed. Luckily I had my cable out in my vehicle in his driveway. Rather than getting stressed we used my cable and it worked first time we tried.

[chirp_users] Elementary help for novice requested!
by David 05 Jun '19

05 Jun '19

I've just bought a Baofeng UV-5R III and I'd like to use it for marine vhf and 2m and 70cm amateur bands. I've held a ham license since the 1980s but have been inactive for many years. I've succeeded with "Download from radio". I've also opened a new page to "Import from stock config" to open FR marine vhf. I can't seem to be able to "File; save" or "File; save as"? When I'm on the marine vhf page, I can not "upload to radio" The text is greyed out? All help gratefully received! Many thanks David, G4PYH Cheshire, UK

Are the frequency’s your down loading activated in the 5R ? Make sure it is opened up to allow the frequency’s your installing. Check coverage activation..

Re: [chirp_users] Elementary help for novice requested! youtube video

David, I checked out the video and there are a couple of caveats. First when he gets to the part where he is using Chirp the sound level drops drastically. Hope you have some amplified speakers... He is also running on a Mac not Windows. You will see when he goes to choose the connection for the radio it shows a usb device. That doesn't happen on the Windows version of Chirp. You only see the choices for Comm ports. Since you were able to download from the radio you had to have gotten that right. Device Manager will show you it you ever have problems. There may be others but i quit watching after that point because of the poor audio. There may be other videos out there. From my past experiences, you need to make sure you have a fairly new version of Chirp. I could never cut, copy, or paste in the memory areas on my Win 7 laptop until they upgraded the windows install months back. Then finally i could start using it. You will have to play around with it to get the hang of it. Once you get that first one under your belt you will look forward to working with it. Have fun and 73. Be blessed! May 2019 be our year of change & growth!

This email originated from an external sender. Use caution when following links or opening attachments as they could be malicious Jim and Tom, Thank you for your helpful, informative and welcoming responses. I’m pretty sure that I understand everything you’ve written. I’m using an HP laptop running W7. I have a second HP laptop running W10 but I prefer the other machine. I’ve already tried to copy and paste the marine vhf stock configuration but I highlighted all rows, select all, copy, paste into a file, new. It didn’t work but I’ll try again one row at a time. I’m still having issues with file/save and file/save as. As I click on either action, the screen simply reverts to the open page. Sounds pretty simple but I haven’t yet found a way to save/change name as save! Hopefully. The YouTube video will help. I’m now away from home for the weekend but based upon your feedback I’ll be enthusiastically trying again on Monday! Kind regards David Sent from my iPhone On 31 May 2019, at 12:48, Tom Henderson <Tom(a)henderson4.us<mailto:Tom@henderson4.us>> wrote: Look at the tab for the file you have open that you're trying to write to the radio. If it says something like "Generic CSV" a the beginning, you can't write that to a radio. The problem is that you're opening a new file, or at least that's what you said you were doing in your original email. The only files you can write to a radio are files that were created by reading from a radio. The name on the tab should be the model of the radio you pulled it from. Save an unmodified version, then import the stock config into the file you got from the radio, save it again with a new name, then write it to the radio. If "Upload to radio" is blank, it's most likely the tab you have open didn't come from a radio. Check out this youtube video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l_kdktZAkI At 4:40, he has just pulled the config from the radio. At 7:00, he starts importing VHF channels At 11:00, he uploads the file he just finished downloading and modifying back to the radio.

I don’t seem able to either “file, save” or “file, save as”. Clicking on either doesn’t appear to work. When I’m on the page with “stock configuration” the “send to radio” option is greyed out. I’ve tried a few times but always the same result. My next step is probably to download the chirp software and try again. Otherwise, I’m stuck!

Once you've downloaded successfully from the radio, save that file and keep it in case you ever want to go back to the settings it came out of the box with. Next, with that file still open, select "radio" from the top menu, "Import from stock config," and then select the UHF channels you need. Now save the modofied file under a new name, and with that file still open, try writingback to the radio. Hope that helps!
