Hopefully in will get a chance to test downloading from my radio this weekend. I've got a fair number of things programmed in it, and have been running APRS with it. - John -- John Werner flybrick(a)frontiernet.net Sent from Kaiten Mail on my Android Tablet. Please excuse my brevity.

It's not listed on the web page, but I'm wondering if support for this dual-band, Part 90 mobile radio might be in the works? If not ... I might be able to make one available in a few weeks. 73 de chris K6DBG

[chirp_users] Merging files?
by Phaeton 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

How do I merge data from a CSV file into a file read from the radio? If I import, it just overwrites the previous read data. I want to take a file with 10 channels and import a file that has 20 channels. ending up with 30 channels Can that be done in a bulk fashion or does each channel have to be copied and pasted? I know that can be done because I've done it but can't figure out how to do 20 or more in one feel swoop. Sent from my 15.4" MacBook Pro, i7 quad core

[chirp_users] Alinco DX-SR8T
by Phaeton 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

Would be lovely to see a channel and settings addition to Chiro for this HF transceiver. It has a data connection that will allow SDR or CAT commands so maybe this radio could be added to the list of supported radios? I think it has 900 memories total and there is a receiver only version the DX 8RT. Has there been any developer's discussion on this? Sent from my 15.4" MacBook Pro, i7 quad core

Re: [chirp_users] chirp_users Digest, Vol 50, Issue 18

First try using the mailing list I was wondering why finding free programming software for the Yaesu FT-90 was almost impossible? I have found and used the Chirp software for most of my handhelds radios and I love it. Well done team and a big thanks. The FT-90, modified, is a great little radio for the car but a real pain in the afterburner to program especially since it occasionally looses ALL info about once a year. Modifying a programming cable shouldn't be too difficult for the average Ham. Regards Bob VK2BYF (Nowra, South Coast NSW Oz)

[chirp_users] Not showing COM10
by Dean Gibson AE7Q 12 Feb '13

On 2013-01-01, Dan wrote: /Type COM10 into the box and it will open it. The only way for a "regular" Win32 program to enumerate the available serial ports is to literally try to open every single one of them to see if it fails or succeeds. This takes a bit of time, and can interfere with other things using the ports on your system. I can add this search logic to CHIRP, I just hate to solve the problem in that way. If you'll open a ticket for extending the static list to, say, COM64, I'll be glad to shove that in to make it more intuitive./ -------------------------------- Well, I use COM ports w/ Chirp into the 100's. I agree that enumerating or "blindly" extending the list is a bad idea. My suggestion is to remember any valid (1-256) COM port(s) manually entered into the "COM box", and present them in future invocations. -- Dean AE7Q ps: I've imported all my memories into my new Icom ID-51A using Icom's CS-51 program. So, if you need a sample .ICF file (both virgin from the device, and/or as modified by me) in order to add ID-51 support to Chirp, let me know.

[chirp_users] Problem with Radioreference
by Phaeton 12 Feb '13

12 Feb '13

When I do a Query Data Source I get frequencies from my zip code but they are all Public Service like police, fire, EMS, Schools, road departments etc.. While that's fine and dandy there is an amateur section at radioreference.com that I can import amateur frequencies using one of the Commander series softwares for Yaesu radios. Please check into this because radioreference should be exporting amateur frequencies along with public service or their should be a choice given in the query operation. Or if I'm missing something let me know what. This is one of the daily build, it's a week or so old but it works great with the Wouxun KGUV6D-Ham Only radio.
