[chirp_users] FT817ND/M601-M605
by Richard Hanna 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

When I download the 817ND using CHIRP (latest published download), I am not seeing the M601-605 channels even with "Special Channels" checked. I do see all the VFO's etc. The 817ND is new, bought at Dayton, but just got the data cable, and CHIRP is working fine with my Wouxan UVD1P. Any ideas? or did Yaesu just do a better job of "hiding" the channels? Dick Hanna, K3VYY

[chirp_users] MARS Mod VX-5 Clone Error
by Nick Strada 14 Aug '12

14 Aug '12

Pre-mod I was able to read and write to my VX-5 via CHIRP. Post mod, the radio functions perfectly, but CHIRP no longer plays nice. Read from radio works, but trying to upload to radio fails halfway through with "Clone Error" message on the VX-5 Display and all memories on the HT deleted. Mod performed was to de-solder a jumper on the VX-5 board. Again, radio operates perfectly, but won't talk to CHIRP any longer Suggestions?

[chirp_users] icom IC-80AD future support?
by William Arcand 08 Aug '12

08 Aug '12

Greetings, Looking around at the support new radio section of your website I see that the icom ic-80AD was added to the list back in Sept 2011. I was wondering if any progress was made to support the radio, or if there are plans to support the radio. Any insight you could provide would be appreciated. 73 Bill W1WRA

Dan, I have an IC-208H. How do I find a developer? Who long should it take? 73, Rob McKinnie AL7AW Issue #266 has been updated by Dan Smith. Status changed from New to Rejected The 208 will remain unimplemented until someone can donate or loan an IC-208H to a developer for implementation.

Re: [chirp_users] Using Chirp with Ubuntu
by Creede Lambard 29 Jul '12

29 Jul '12

Geoffrey, Lots of things tend to work better when they're plugged in. :-) There are two main rig control programs for Linux that I'm aware of. One, grig, is in the Ubuntu repositories under "Amateur Radio". The other, flrig, is available through the developer's web site at http://w1hkj.com. I've used both and IMO flrig is nicer and better maintained, but YMMV. (Plus Dave, the developer of flrig, is approachable and responsive, and there's an active Yahoo group for Dave's software.) Try both and see. 73, Creede WA7KPK ------------------------------ From: Geoffrey K.

I see on the Chirp website that this radio is supported, "In Daily Builds". Does that mean it's ready and will work? I don't want to do something that will freeze up the radio. Your patience please. Milt. N6MG
