[chirp_users] ID-31A Quesitions and Issue
by Joel Mclaughlin 06 Sep '12

06 Sep '12

Not sure if this has been touched on yet, but when downloading my radio's config on the ID-31A, the names of my memory channels are getting truncated. I haven't tried updating the radio just yet but if I correct those and update it will this cause issues?? Thanks for the hard work on CHIRP! Use it all the time on my VX-7R! -- Joel McLaughlin Life in Ohio Podcast life.in.ohio.pod(a)gmail.com gorkon(a)gmail.com http://lifeinohio.libsyn.com joel(a)geardiary.com geardiary.com

[chirp_users] TH-D72A Access Issue
by Scott Johnson 06 Sep '12

06 Sep '12

Rechecked COM4 port in Device Manager (Windows 7). Shows port is operational. When I select Download Radio, drop down shows COM4 and Kenwood/TH-72. After selecting OK, nothing seems to be going on w/the CHIRP program. Appreciate any troubleshooting assistance. Thanks! 73, Scott

[chirp_users] FT-1900 - tried it
by Cullen King 27 Aug '12

For any who may care. I did make up a cable and tried the FT-2800 driver but as alluded to in earlier threads, this did not work. Most like a timing function. W5CCK

[chirp_users] FT-1900
by Cullen King 20 Aug '12

20 Aug '12

I've gone through the archives and the road map. Has anyone tried Chirp with an FT-1900. It is basically the same radio as the 2800. I did see that the FT-2800 is somewhat challenging to write to. Is this the proper forum to ask these things? I also have a ICOM T2a that would be nice to be able to use Chirp.

[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?

Re: [chirp_users] Using Chirp with Ubuntu
by Creede Lambard 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.)

So again thanks for a job well done. { Now who knows about a good HF rig control program for UBUNTU?} Geoffrey On 28 Jul 2012 at 12:00, chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.comchirp_users Digest, Vol 43, Issue 22 wrote: > Send chirp_users mailing list submissions to > chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > chirp_users-owner(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of chirp_users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Linux handles it gracefully (probably even the fake chips), and generally assigns it to something like: /dev/ttyUSB0 (number zero, not the capital letter O) You can type in the /dev/ttyUSB0 in the chirp dialog and it will remember it. For more indication what your system is doing, run one or more of the following. There are probably more elegant ways to see but I haven't had my coffee yet... dmesg | grep tty ls /dev/tty* -- Jason Carr http://www.mousetrap.net/mouse/

Geoffrey, No driver needed. USB serial devices are detected by the kernel. It's very easy. Just edit the /dev/ttyS0 to /dev/ttyUSB0 or 1 whichever was detected. Do a ls -alt /dev/ttyU* in a terminal window to find which device it used after you've plugged in the cable. You'll get something like this: crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jul 27 16:18 /dev/ttyUSB0 Make sure your user is part of the dialout group to avoid having to run Chirp as root.

Hi there, Well, I got CHIRP to work fine with my handy little Baofeng UV-5R on Windows XP. [well done fellows !!] I now have it running on UBUNTU, except it looks for a tty(x) driver, and I use a USB cable. What do I have to do so that I can use this cable? Do I need a Linux driver? And if so, where do I get one? Thank you a lot, Geoffrey Geofrey K. Phillips gphillips13(a)centurylink.net WD4LYO

[chirp_users] How to install Development builds

Here is a direct link: ... > Of course, that date/link will change when there is a new build available. Does anyone else see any value in symlinks on the server that would point to the latest directory/builds? IMO it could simplify project documentation and would simplify scripting solutions to pull the the latest version programmatically on non-*buntu platforms. The most recent example would be: daily-latest/ --> daily-20120724/ chirp-daily-latest-installer.exe --> chirp-daily-20120724-installer.exe chirp-daily-latest-win32.zip --> chirp-daily-20120724-win32.zip chirp-daily-latest.app.zip --> chirp-daily-20120724.app.zip chirp-daily-latest.tar.gz --> chirp-daily-20120724.tar.gz Under this model this kind of URL would always be valid: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-latest/chirp-daily-latest… This all assumes the dailies are published by a script that would be amenable to automagically updating the symlinks (delete the current links and make new ones to the new dailies). If it's done by hand then return on invested effort would be much less. -- Jason Carr http://www.mousetrap.net/mouse/

I just discovered the Chirp application and I'm trying to figure out how to install the development versions on Windows. Do I just select the chirp directory and copy the newest file into the installed directory or am I suppose to get everything from re-install. I don't see any instructions for a non-developer like me. Thanks, David KA2OQZ

[chirp_users] Programming Wouxum KG-UV6X
by KG4RUL 25 Jul '12

25 Jul '12

If I download from the radio using parameters: Port COM3 Vendor Wouxun Model KG-UV6D everything works great. I have prepared a .CSV file formatted to the CHIRP requirements. I can successfully import the file. When I try to upload that file data to my Wouxun KG-UV6X, this window appears: Port COM3 Vendor Wouxun Model CSV (note - this value is greyed out and not changeable) I click on OK and nothing happens.

The Kenwood TM-271A appears on the Supported Radio Models list. I have just hooked up a TM-281A (newer model of the same radio) to the stable release and it appears to work fine. IDed by chirp as a 271 and works in "live mode" like the 271. If there is anything I should test before adding it to the Supported list let me know. -- Jason Carr http://www.mousetrap.net/mouse/

[chirp_users] Schedule for Support of Radios
by KG4RUL 23 Jul '12

23 Jul '12

I am the Emergency coordinator for our County ARES. I have the following radios that need to have a common set of frequencies programmed into them: VX-5R - Supported FT-857D - Supported FT-897D - Not Supported FT-8800R - Supported FT-7900R - Not Directly Supported (Programs as an FT-7800R) FT-2800M - Supported TS-2000(x) - Not Supported KG-UV6X - Not Supported FT-60R - Supported I have long said the ALL radio manufacturers should be required to have a common dataset for programming their radios. Lo and Behold, I have found CHIRP! If the not supported radios listed above could be added, my life would be so much easier! While I do not have spare radios to loan, I can willingly be a Beta Tester. TNX Dennis, KG4RUL

Hi all, It has been quite a while since I wrote the Alinco drivers (DRx35) and I don't quite recall some of the behavior. A user is trying to program a DR235 and having trouble getting any data from the radio. Does the radio have to be in clone mode prior to download? Are there any other tricks that may be necessary before it will work? I seem to recall it being rather straightforward, but it's been a while. Thanks for any feedback you can provide... -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS

[chirp_users] skipping channels
by dave calhoun 21 Jul '12

Hi Marco, When I export to csv it does insert the S for skip into the file. I'll have to learn how to check the radio itself to see if the skip is selected or not. That would answer if it was an unsupported feature in chirp or not. I'm using a yaesu FT-60 handheld. When you describe the special channels it sounds like you are talking about ones we can't transmit on? Like listening to the burger king radio? I've seen the frequencies for my area published but wondered just what use they would be. Alan, I wasn't sure what you were asking but it sounds like you are using windows 7 and don't have the usb driver installed? I don't know anything about windows 7 since I am a macintosh user but perhaps you could get the appropriate driver from the same place I did. http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm Dave kc7hpt KC7HPT
