Hi Dan, See if this helps. Press the Menu button then press the down arrow or the up arrow until you get the item 21 - MDF-A Channel Display, Hit menu again the the up or down arrow until you see Channel Name then press Menu again then Exit. Do the same thing for item 22 - MDF-B Channel Display only this time select Frequency. Now if you have both A & B set to the same channel the A display will show the name and the B display the frequency.

[chirp_users] Programming New BTECH GMRS-50X1
by David C. Jenner 18 May '19

18 May '19

I successfully programmed a new BTECH GMRS-50X1 using my older BTECH GMRS-V1 as a basis. However, it took 4 min and 30 sec to upload to the radio. The first thing I did was read out the 50X1 and write back to it. That upload and all since, with new entries, have taken about the same time, which seems excessively long? I don't see this with other radios. Latest version of CHIRP on Windows 10 running on Parallels on a MacBook Pro using both BTECH and RT Systems cables. Comm port says it's 9600 baud. Dave

Hi Dan, I may have mildly misspoke. I know it can be done manually but I think it would be very difficult, if not impossible to get CHIRP to do it. Sorry for any confusion.

[chirp_users] UV-82HP display question
by Dan Jolley 17 May '19

17 May '19

I have a UV-82HP, and I would like the top line to say the channel name, and on the bottom line I would like it to show the correct frequency of the channel I am on. Example: If I am on NOAA on the top line I would like it to show 162.525 on the bottom line. Which is the NOAA frequency in our area. I also have a UV-82C, UV-5R and a UV-5RTP I would like to do the same thing to (if possible). Is this possible? I have done so many google searches and read a bunch of articles. One man said he had his radio this way, but did not say how he did it. I have been playing around with the Settings in Chirp and I have the Name on the top line, but can't get the correct frequency on the bottom line. Thank you in advance, Dan Jolley

I know that can be done by setting the display mode as you would prefer in the "A" and the "B" displays. However you must set both displays to the same channel manually. I'm not aware of an automatic sync capability.

[chirp_users] Alinco DJ-G7T FW 5.1000
by Phil Freeman 17 May '19

17 May '19

Howdy List! just got my new Alinco DJ-G7T today. I'm guessing that it's not the same as the DJ-G7EG. Its firmware version is 5.1. I tried both the debian buster packaged version and the following version from the default branch in Mercurial: > changeset: 3229:7f46b0213c16 > tag: tip > user: Pavel Milanes (CO7WT) <pavelmc(a)gmail.com> > date: Sun May 12 00:35:53 2019 -0400 > summary: [KG-UV8E] Fix the missing step declarations, fixes #6785 Attached is a log from the last attempt. $ ./chirpw --log-level debug --log /tmp/chirpw-$(date +%s)-alinco-DJ-G7.log (both versions worked fine with my Yaesu FT-70D...) -- ⛵ - 🏴☠️

[chirp_users] Programming Yaesu Radios using CHIRP
by Larry Lovell 16 May '19

16 May '19

Has anyone had a problem programming a Yaesu radio with CHIRP? Someone mentioned that their Yaesu was damaged and had to be sent to the factory because CHIRP had overwritten some code controlling the processor. It also had to be re-flashed. Since I don't fully understand how CHIRP works this doesn't make sense to me, but knowing manufacturing companies, they may share Channel Memory with processor memory and not think much about it. Thanks for your information. -- Larry Lovell 73's N7RGW http://QRVTronics.com <http://qrvtronics.com> Cell: 214-697-1729
