[chirp_users] Attention please, users of the Ubuntu-hams PPA
by Steve Conklin 25 Nov '11

25 Nov '11

What follows is a message recently sent to the Ubuntu-hams mailing list. I know there are some people on this list who use the Ubuntu-hams PPA, and we're trying to reach as many people as we can about this change. Steve AI4QR ========================================================= QST QST QST. ACTION IS REQUIRED BY YOU if you use the ubuntu-hams PPA software archive! . . . In order to comply with Launchpad's recently improved PPA security policy[0] we have removed the ubuntu-hams PPA and replaced it with a new PPA owned by a new Launchpad team "ubuntu-hams-updates": https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-hams-updates/+archive/ppa This will allow us to properly control uploads to the PPA, and therefore much stronger protection from malware interference[1]. Our open access "ubuntu-hams" team will continue to exist at: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-hams and will continue to host our mailing list, but will no longer host a PPA software archive. You do not need to join the new "ubuntu-hams-updates" team (in fact you cannot do so), but you must now remove the old defunct PPA and add the new PPA to your system software sources[2]. To do so, paste these commands into a terminal window: sudo rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-hams-ppa-* # type your password when prompted sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-hams-updates/ppa # press ENTER when prompted sudo apt-get update # wait for the "$" prompt to reappear The orange Update Manager icon will likely now appear in your icon bar at upper right; use it to install the latest updates from the new PPA and the main Ubuntu archive. We apologize for the inconvenience. If you have any questions about the new ubuntu-hams-updates PPA, or the migration process, do not hesitate to ask. 73 de KA6MAL es AI4QR -Kamal Mostafa KA6MAL -Steve Conklin AI4QR [0] Launchpad has mandated that large teams like ~ubuntu-hams (226 members and growing) should better control who can upload and modify their PPA software archives. [1] We have never experienced any malware interference with our ubuntu-hams PPA; this is a preventative measure. [2] If you don't update your software sources, no harm will occur... your existing ubuntu-hams packages will remain installed on your system, but you won't get any further updates to those packages.

[chirp_users] Question on chirp with TH-F6A
by bnjkoch＠comcast.net 17 Nov '11

17 Nov '11

Dan & Team: CHIRP - great project! Thanks for supporting the HAM community in all of your (many) efforts. I own a Kenwood TM-F6A hand-held transceiver, purchased in fall 2008. My first trial with chirp(ver 0.1.12) lead to errors, but I read in a FAQ about a F6A bug fix in version(chirp-daily-11092011). Chirp(ver11092011) allowed access to the radio without errors. When I attempted to export the data, an error was generated. 1. See attachment(1.jpg) for screen.cap prior to error. 2. See attachment(2jpg) for screen.cap at error. 3. See attachment(ver.jpg) for screen.cap of version information. Environment: 1. WinXP(MediaCenter2002_sp2) on a DELL XPS.400(DXP051) 2. USB><Serial converter to OEM serial cable to radio. Ideas: 1. I am not a "real" programmer :) the error seems to involve a function where the argument is a HEX value but expected a DEC value. 2. I used the same equipment to access the TH-F6A with the Kenwood prog s/w and it worked as expected. 3. I can try another USB><Serial converter, but this error doesn't seem to point that direction. 4. I can try to clear all memory on the F6A but would rather hear your ideas first. What's next? In the future, would you rather see screen.cap's as attachments or in-line images? Any other advice? PS: My interest in CHIRP was sparked when a HAMShare class was offered for this Saturday, Nov-19-2011, in Auburn, WA. One of the (many) topics is CHIRP. Thanks and Best Regards; Bruce Koch - AD7XS
