[chirp_users] Mass update of D710
by Sander Pool 01 Jul '12

01 Jul '12

Hi, yesterday I tried to do a mass update of my D710. Here are the steps I followed: - connect D710 to computer - load memory using MCP-2A - save MCP-2A data to file - exit MCP-2A - start CHIRP - connect CHIRP to D710 - wait for all 1000 memories to be read - export to .csv - stop CHIRP - disconnect D710 - load .csv into CHIRP - load repeater information from repeaterbook - paste repeater information from new documents into .csv - repeat previous steps till all desired repeaters are loaded - save .csv - connect D710 to computer - load memories using CHIRP - delete all memories using CHIRP (pasting over existing memories doesn't appear possible) - copy all memories from .csv file - paste all memories onto empty D710 document - tons (dozens) of error dialogs pile on top of each other complaining of illegal values - impossible to kill all sort-of-modal dialogs - kill CHIRP using task manager - do a little dance that I saved my config using MCP-2A - start MCP-2A - load previous config - save to D710 Forgetting for a moment about the apparently illegal repeater data that breaks the upload to the D710, is there a better way to upload a csv file? It seems a bit cumbersome to first have to load the entire memory contents, then remove all memories and then paste over. Thanks, Sander W1SOP

I'm getting an XP machine back in service to do all of my radio programming and when I install Chirp and try to run it I get an error Application cannot run because application configuration is incorrect. I tried uninstalling, downloading again and reinstalling again with the same results. Any ideas anyone? Thanks, Bill WB4WTN

Re: [chirp_users] Chirp Mint 13 w/cinnamon Yaesu FT-8800

Dan, I am using the serial port on the computer. It is a Dell Optiplex GX280. dual core 32bit P4 with 3GB of memory. I blew Windows away and installed Mint 13 w/cinnamon. I am at work at the moment (50 miles from home). I'll give it another shot tonight and send you the log if I cannot get it to work. I am hoping it is some little step I am forgetting.

Yes, it's the same combination/procedure. Are you really using the integrated serial port on your machine, or a USB adapter? Please attach your debug log so I can take a look. -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users

[chirp_users] Chirp Mint 13 w/cinnamon Yaesu FT-8800
by Hawkins 18 Jun '12

Gang, Installed Chirp. I am using a cable that I got from some Windows software that I used to program the FT-8800. It works fine with that software. I just don't use W for much and would like to do away with it all together. When I put the 8800 in clone mode and clicked OK on chirp, I got an error from Chirp saying that it did not have permission to use /dev/ttyS0. sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyS0 fixed that at least for now. Trying again produced : "An error has occurred failed to read header 0" Any thoughts? Steve -- Stephen Hawkins NG0G ng0g(a)mchsi.com 73 49 111 01001001

Rather than setting the permissions on /dev/ttyS0 to 0777 you should add yourself to the group that owns the device. On my Ubuntu box that's the "dialout" group; Mint might be similar. 73, Creede WA7KPK From: Hawkins Sent: 6/17/2012 12:58 PM To: chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com Subject: [chirp_users] Chirp Mint 13 w/cinnamon Yaesu FT-8800 Gang, Installed Chirp.
