[chirp_users] Anytone AT5888UV CHIRP build 2-24-2013
by William Griffith II 25 Feb '13

LOL certainly not ready for primetime. I advise not to use this software with your AT5888UV. Works maybe 20% the way you would want. Big trouble with data written to radio that in no way matches what's entered. Made my radio inoperable until I restored factory defaults. Platform, Windows 7, 32 bit professional. Software, CHIRP daily-20130224.

[chirp_users] FT8800R
by Jimmy Dominguez 25 Feb '13

I tried to read a FT8800 radio; I just get an error about not being able to read the header. I followed the 8800 process to put it in clone mode. I used the latest production version of Chirp. As you may be able to tell, this is my first time to try chirp, so if you can direct me on what information I may provide to aid in directing me that would be most welcome. Windows 7 laptop being used. Not urgent. Regards, Jimmy

[chirp_users] ICOM IC-2100H
by Lynch Scott-RTTV40 24 Feb '13

I did a read from my Icom IC-2100 using Chirp. All the memories that were in the radio were loaded into chirp successfully, but there was one additional column called ToneSql that was set for all channels to 88.5. I do not use a Receive tone squelch on any of the channels, so not sure why this column is showing up after the read from the radio. Also, there does not seem to be a way to set the ToneSql to not be active. The drop down menu for each channel does not have a "n/a" or "none" option, just more tone frequencies. How do I make the tone squelch inactive for the receive so I can add some frequencies to the current list and then write back to the radio? Can I just "hide" the ToneSql column and then when I do the write the ToneSql will not be written to the radio? Scott Lynch Freescale Semiconductor MSG R&D 480-413-2723

This also replicates the OEM software behavior of up/downloading only the blocks of memory that are relevant based on the used flags. Related to #365 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix C-library locale initialization This imports a GPLv3 file from elib.intl, which provides the roundabout environment variable setting routines necessary to make environment changes on Win32. It also moves importing the gtk library until after we have determined the proper language code so that stock items get translated properly. Fixes #613, but is related to many translation bugs in the past. [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix Russian language code Related to #609

[chirp_users] Import error of Kenwood HMK file
by Kevin Whipp 24 Feb '13

24 Feb '13

I'm using the Chirp daily build 20130223 running on Windows 7. I am no longer able to import a HMK file into Chirp. I get an error window with the message "Unknown file format". I have attempted the import with files generated from both the MCP-2A and MCP-4A Kenwood programs. Did the import process break recently? ----- *Kevin Whipp* Phone: 240.242.9850 Amateur Radio: W3KDW Email: w3kdw(a)arrl.net | Winlink: w3kdw(a)winlink.org Schedule Meeting: http://schedule.whipp.us

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-20130223 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #171 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Add AnyTone 5888UV support Note that the upload/download process takes much longer than the OEM software at this point. That is because the OEM software is optimizing by checking to see what memories are in use and only down/uploading the parts of the memory that it has to. This may be added in chirp at a later date, but it's tricky to get correct. Addresses #365 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Add ALL_DTCS_CODES and use that for gating the memory values Also adds valid_dtcs_codes to RadioFeatures, defaulting to the common set so nothing else should have to change. Needed for #365 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Make crashing tests report where in the test they're being called from Need while working on #365 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix parse_freq to handle cases like ".6" after recent change Broken in the fix for #595
