[chirp_users] Windows 10 Pro Anniversary Edition Locks Up
by jgoods19＠gmail.com 08 Oct '16

08 Oct '16

I just installed the Win10 Pro Anniversary update. Now when I try to save a *.img or *.csv file, Chirp locks up. I have to use Ctl-Alt-Delete to close Chirp out. I uninstalled Chirp and reinstalled the latest version and the problem remains/ Any ideas? THX Sent from Mail for Windows 10

The list suggestions & web info didn't work, but helped with clues and likely distracted me to use my python. I ended up changing chirp to use my MacPorts python. I did a clean install on a different [Mavericks] system to eliminate any potential left over collateral. I then applied the same changes to my El Capitan MacBook to verify... For those the feel adventurous: 1) edit chirp (/Applications/Chirp.app/Contents/MacOS/chirp): ## PYTHON=/opt/kk7ds//Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python PYTHON=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python you may need to adjust the path to match your python & chirp installation. 2) If chirp was previously installed, otherwise skip: a) rename or delete /opt/kk7ds b) delete soft link /Applications/Chirp.app/Contents/MacOS/../CHIRP 3) install any missing python modules (example for MacPorts): sudo port install py-serial py27-pygtk py-suds Run will open X Windows (XQuartz)... 73 John

[chirp_users] Open stock config-Noaa Weather
by Todd Bloomingdale 30 Sep '16

30 Sep '16

Chirp developers. Seems I have found a minor bug in trying to open the stock config for the US NOAA Weather frequencies. Tried opening the stock config to import and I get a error and also the listed weather frequencies have some frequencies listed that are not part of the NOAA system. Also the alpha tags are messed up. Just wanted to let the developers know. Included is a saved .csv of the weather frequencies that I pulled up and also a debug file.

I have the TYT TH-9000D 220 radio. I purchased What I believe to be a legit FTDI chipped programming cable. When I go to down load from the radio to get stock img it tells me the radio is not supported. Is it possible they have updated the firmware? Is it something you are already working on? Thanks in advance, Art KJ6ZEE

[chirp_users] Baofeng GT-5TP
by Todd Bloomingdale 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

Hello All, I've read on a few amazon reviews that the Baofeng GT-5TP can be programmed using chirp using the UV-82HP setting. I can not get the radio to work with any of the Baofeng radio drop downs. I did download the actual Baofeng software and that works, and also works fine with my Anytone so it isn't a cord issue. Any thoughts on how to get chirp to communicate with the radio? The GT-5TP has version N82303 using the holding 3 button and turning on the radio. Todd Bloomingdale-KC9LOX Tomah, WI

When setting a band limit to "1" or and value ending in "01" (101, 201, 301, etc.), the value ends up in the "ident" and is stripped by the code that was added to support the UV-6 with the longer 12 byte "ident".
