[chirp_users] Kenwood Image
by K0LNY_Glenn 09 Aug '22

09 Aug '22

Hi Folks, I looked on the Chirp repository for an image for my Kenwood TH-F6A and didn't find that model. Does anyone have a stock image you can send my way? My radio does not import, but it opens my CSV files, but those don't upload or save live to the radio. I don't know if another stock image will get absorbed into it either, but I'm just trying different things. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] programming a Kenwood TH F6A
by K0LNY_Glenn 09 Aug '22

09 Aug '22

Hi, So I just fixed up a file for the Kenwood TH F6A, and I do remember from programming it a year or so back, that it operates in Chirp in "live mode", which means it puts stuff in right away. So I wasn't able to import a CSV file, the import does not want to work. I downloaded from the radio okay, and since I couldn't import, I tried the "open" and it seemed to bring the fields. But it won't allow me to upload. Do we not upload? Or if it won't upload and it should, what might be the cause? Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] IMG File Request
by K0LNY_Glenn 07 Aug '22

07 Aug '22

Hi, I have a bTech UV5X3 and it seems all messed up, that is why I acquired it. I can punch in simplex channels, but I cannot input duplex channels by hand. Chirp will not read from the radio, and even though it is a tri-band, the band button only toggles between 2M and 70Cm. I was able to punch in a 1.5 M frequency and it worked on simplex. But no matter what I do, Chirp says error reading from radio. The cable works with the Baofengs I have. Since the radio isn't toggling to the third band, I'm wondering if someone flashed it with a UV5R image. I'm not sure if it would work to upload to the radio with the proper image if I can't download from it first. Anyway, if someone has a backed original image of a UV5X3, I would much appreciate a copy of it if you would. Glenn

Hi, I just picked up a couple Baofeng UV5Rs to program for a friend and his wife, since they don't have a programming cable. One of them is missing the button above the PTT button, it is the one used to toggle in and out of commercial FM. Does anyone have an old broken UV5R from which you can send me the button? Thanks.

[chirp_users] Not Accessible In Chirp
by K0LNY_Glenn 01 Aug '22

01 Aug '22

Hi All, So I've made progress on my RaspberryPi 4. Bull'seye. In LXDE desktop, Chirp did not show up after I installed it in the CLI, and LXDE was challenging with the screenreader Orca anyway. I installed mate and Orca works much better, and Chirp was in accessories, as it is in Ubuntu. So here's the new rub. I launch Chirp, and it does not speak with Orca the screenreader. I did alt D and heard the bleeps when I was at the top and bottom of the port list, so I am pretty sure it's working, just not with a screenreader. I did the snap chirp install. I may try it with another TTS in Orca, but I don't think that will make a difference. Glenn

[chirp_users] A "Feature" When Programming Btech's GMRS-V2 Handheld
by Lisa & Sam Thurman 31 Jul '22

31 Jul '22

Dear Chirp Team: I’m a newcomer to Chirp, having found it following an interest in getting a repeater-capable handheld, that led me to Btech’s GMRS-V2 as a starter radio. While Chrip presently has a beta-version interface to the GMRS-V2, I found it to work well and I’ve been able to program about 20 frequencies into the radio with regional repeater stations, and a mixture of VHF and UHF frequencies for local fire, police, businesses, etc. Chirp makes this relatively easy (provided you enter all of the data correctly, of course) and is more user-friendly than the CPS software from Baofeng, which is really meant for their UV-82 series on which the GMRS-V2 is based. One thing I’ve noticed is that while Chirp uploads to the radio and gets CTCSS and DCS codes and other settings correct, after programming the radio is showing the “+-“ symbol for a frequency offset on all of the channels that I put in with no offset. I checked the image file I’d saved and see that the column labeled “Duplex” does show as “off” in all cases. The radio works OK, though, so I describe this as more of a feature and less of a bug... Does anyone have an idea of something I might be doing incorrectly in the use of Chirp? Or is this a feature of the current Chirp version when writing to firmware in the GMRS-V2? Sincerely Yours, Sam Thurman Valencia, CA

[chirp_users] Squelch On Specific Channels
by K0LNY_Glenn 28 Jul '22

28 Jul '22

Hi All, I was just out trying to bounce off the ISS repeater with the 5 downlink frequencies programmed into my Baofeng BF9, which I think has the same basic settings as the UV5R except some power levels. I need to keep the squelch open when I'm listening, but I don't think it works to hold the squelch open and PTT at the same time. Is there a squelch level per channel, in Chirp, or is this only in the menus for all the channels? I didn't see it in the column headings, but I thought I'd make sure here. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] Linux CHIRP, ICOM 7100, "unicode strings" error
by Michael Nadler KI7QIB 27 Jul '22

27 Jul '22

ICOM 7100 connected to Linux system via the mini-USB port. FLRIG can control the radio through that interface. Running CHIRP 0.3.0dev, when I try to download from the radio via /dev/ttyUSB0, I get a pop-up error message: unicode strings are not supported, please encode to bytes: <<gibberish characters>>>". Are there specific settings I need to have set on the ICOM? Is CHIRP able to interact with the ICOM-7100 via the mini-USB port? Do I have to use the RT-Systems FTDI cable into the audio port? P.S. I also tried running Windows CHIRP daily-20220408. Download from radio gets "error" in every entry. -- Michael Nadler KI7QIB

[chirp_users] Baofeng HP9+ won't read
by K0LNY_Glenn 20 Jul '22

20 Jul '22

Hi, I have a Baofeng HP 9+, and I'm using Chirp on an older Ubuntu live on a thumb drive, that I've booted to before and used to program the same radios. I was just able to first read and write to my UV 5R with the same cable that I'm trying to use on the 9+. I worked and worked on the connection, making sure it was tight into the radio. I reset the radio with menu 40 and #1, which is a full reset, it went to Chinese, and then I set it to English again, but it still won't read from the radio. Does anyone have any ideas why it won't read? I'm pretty sure the 9+ uses the same cable as the UV5R. Thanks for any suggestions. Glenn

Hi, I am planning on putting in the voice downlink and uplink for the International Space Station into my Baofeng. The downlink is in the 7Cm band and the uplink is in the 2 M band. Typically in Chirp I enter a normal offset, plus or minus. How do I do this in Chirp to cover such a difference in frequency? . Downlink 437.800MHz FM; Doppler +-10KHz .

Either way Windows (and many Mac systems) will not use them. (Without compromising the security of your system by blocking automatic updates and then manually installing an earlier driver suite.)

[chirp_users] vx-6r redux
by Nic Heath 10 Jul '22

10 Jul '22

All I've sent a couple emails with logs and more information but it looks like they both have been memory holed. After trying many different combinations between the two radios and image files and operating systems I was able to get the linux version of CHIRP 0.3.0dev on Debian 11 to program one of the vx-6rs and then clone to the other vx6-r from that HT. I don't really understand why windows with the latest version would not work or mac OS with the latest version would not work. But this old version on linux did. Thought I would see if this email can get in the mailing list archives in case anyone has the same issue: appearing to download with no error on the PC side but error showing up at end on LCD of the vx-6r.. Try version 0.3.0dev on debian 11. 73 -Nic

Hello all I have two VX-6r radios and both of them exhibit the same behavior listed here: https://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/5693 The radios seemingly receive all the way to the end and then display an error message on the radio LCD screen. CHIRP does not display any error messages. I do not see a log file in the CHIP program directory (I am using the stand alone zip version). Any pointers on how to diagnose this issue or get more data from CHIRP on if there is an issue being reported by the radio over serial would be helpful. Thanks -Nic

During the cloning operation, some models need to have the driver send/receive an acknowledgement (ACK) after each of the blocks are transferred. Some models do not need these ACKs. Models that require ACKs Radtel T18 Baofeng Tech FRS-B1 Models that don't require ACKs Retevis RT22S, RB18, RB618, RT68, RT668, RB17, RB617, RB17V, RB85, RB75 Although cloning does work for all of the supported models, the code that determines if CHIRP should ACK or not is improperly implemented. This often causes part of the ACK process to be used during the transfers to/from radios that don't need ACKs. These unnecessary ACKs cause the transfer to be shower than it could be. In some cases, the transfers are noticeably slower than what they are when using the OEM software. This patch corrects the above issue so that ACKs are only used when required. All of the radios listed above were reverified to make sure that that cloning process still works and is as fast or faster as it was previously. fixes #9911

[chirp_users] Fix a CSV File
by K0LNY_Glenn 10 Jun '22

10 Jun '22

Hey All, I plan on using all IMG files for my radios, but I wanted to add some frequencies to my Wouxun KG7D, it is a 2/6 meter HT. I'm using Chirp's KG6 option, since there is no 7 in the supported list, and the 7 is just an upgraded 6. Anyway, in the past, I only used a CVS file, so if someone can fix the attached file, for me, I can save it as an IMG, after uploading it to my radio. I can't use Chirp in Linux, but with a lot of effort in Windows using Jaws screenreader, I'm able to select radio, download and upload. I got this error with my Tyt 9800, and a list member was able to fix that CSV file for me, and he said some things weren't capitalized and perhaps missing values. I got the same error, when trying to import this file, it said "no channels". So it is attached and I hope someone here can detect what is wrong for me. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] How to enter uplink & downlink tones
by Gregory Beyer 06 Jun '22

Hi, I'm a new amateur so sorry if this seems a dumb question. For repeaters with only an uplink tone, one simply selects "Tone" in Tone mode and selects the single tone to get into the repeater.

But I use the Jaws cursor to read a dialog box that comes up when I paste the path to the CSV file and enter. For screenreader users, or anyone else in windows, shift + applications key and then press the letter A on your file to import, outside of Chirp, and the path to the file will be in the clipboard for pasting. Browsing in the Chirp program in windows would be another challenge, that is why I do it this way. All this was easy in Linux. Anyway, thanks for any assistance. Glenn

[chirp_users] No Channels Found
by K0LNY_Glenn 04 Jun '22

04 Jun '22

Hi, Maybe someone can look at my CSV file for me. I'm trying to import a CSV file into my TYT 9800, and I have a CSV file with almost 200 entries, and when I import, it says no channels found. I'm using Windows with a screenreader, so I am limited to what I can manage. Fortunately Chirp brings up the last radio I accessed, otherwise I would have a very hard time routing cursors to try and select the radio in the list. But I use the Jaws cursor to read a dialog box that comes up when I paste the path to the CSV file and enter. For screenreader users, or anyone else in windows, shift + applications key and then press the letter A on your file to import, outside of Chirp, and the path to the file will be in the clipboard for pasting.

[chirp_users] Using chirp with ubuntu 22.04
by Guy Schlosser 03 Jun '22

03 Jun '22

Hey everyone, I am new to this list, so first off hello. I am trying to get chirp running on my system. I am running Ubuntu 22.04, with all packages current. Chirp is installed via apt, as using snap or flat pack renders it inaccessible with Orca. The problem, when I download from my Baofeng Uv5r, I get an error that says module ‘collections’ has no attribute callable. Is anyone running Chirp successfully on Ubuntu 22.04? I know that Python 2 is no longer supported. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much in advance, Guy JAWS Certified, 2021, https://www.freedomscientific.com/Training/Certification

I keep seeing references to this program but how I should use it is not at all obvious to me. I've tried asking it for help and even asked it for help with certain commands but none of it makes sense to me. I am not Linux literate by any stretch so please tell me step by step what to do. 73 John KI4RO.

[chirp_users] CHIRP Flatpak Accessibility
by D.J.J. Ring, Jr. 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

Glenn, I don't know if TEAMVIEWER is accessible, but if it is, I volunteer to help you put frequencies on your radio. I think probably that everything is working on your flatpak installation on the latest CHIRP but flatpak isn't accessible. This is a flatpak problem, not a CHIRP problem. 73 David N1EA On Thu, Jun 2, 2022, 12:49 AM K0LNY_Glenn <glenn(a)ervin.email> wrote: Hi Cinead, I did that, and after running that command, it came back with an error like no tail. When I tried to run Chirp, it read something like gtk error A few lines about gtk, but I could not copy it. My screenreader could not review it. For DJ's suggestion: Does CHIRP run if you issue this command as regular user in a terminal: flatpak run com.danplanet.chirp Seemed like it did, but it only read Chirp As Superuser and it seemed like the window for chirp was there, or an error window for chirp, but it did not function.

This past September 18th was my 76th birthday, and my 50th anniversary as a licensed ham. All I'm asking is that you be gentle with your replies, please? "RTFB" just doesn't get it.With that said, I have an older Baofeng UV-3R HT. It's the very small HT. #1) What software does it use?#2) What cable? A "standard" generic speaker/mic to USB cable, or...?I'd like to thank you Gentlemen/Ladies in advance for your courtesy.Experienced replies please.Milt.N6MG

If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-20220531 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #687 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Merge branch 'master' of github.com:kk7ds/chirp [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] New Model: Anysecu WP-9900 This patch adds support for the Anysecu WP-9900 mobile radio. Resolves #9827 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] New Model: QYT KT-WP12 This patch adds support for the QYT-KT12 mobile radio. #9827 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] Driver Maintenance (V2): btech.py related to #9845 Recently I have been focused on improving the speed and reliably of the btech.py driver module. Bug # 9818 was a first round attempt to bring about some improvements. This round, V2 if you will, has basically scrapped much of the original download/upload routines and has rebuilt them to more closely match how the OEM programming software works. The initialization of the cloning process is so reliable now that the code that tried 3 times before giving up was also removed. Before I submited these changes to be included into CHIRP, I wanted to reach out to a larger group of testers to validate this new code. Requests for external participation were made to some Facebook groups and the [chirp_users] mailing list. Unfortunately, there was vitrually no response from these requests for participation (and one post was removed as a violation of the group's rules). Despite the lack of external volunteers, I have been doing a broad range of testing to ensure that the changes provided in this patch will successfylly work with the broad range for radios that are supported by this driver module. The local testing was done on 5 different computers utilizing a variety of operating systems: - Windows 7 32-bit desktip - Windows 10 64-bit laptop - Linux Mint 20.3 desktop - Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) Bullseye Raspberry Pi 3 Model B - macOS Catalina laptop There were 12 different radios used for these tests. - Anyseco WP-9900 - BTech UV-2501, UV-2501+220, UV-5001, UV-25X2, UV-25X4, UV-50X2, GMRS-X1, and 1 additional pre-release model. - Luiton LT-588UV - QYT KT-8R (handheld) - WACCOM MINI-8900 Plus And finally there were programming cables available from the 4 most common USB-to-UART chip vendors (PC03 style for the handheld radio and PC04 style for the mobile radios). - Future Technology Devices International (FTDI) - Prolific - Silicon Labs - WinChipHead (WCH) Each operating system/radio/programming cable combination was tried a minimun of 2 times (1 download/1 upload) for a minimum total of 480 tests. All were 100% successful. I am very pleased with the results. This patch adds support for this "V2" method of cloning to the btech.py driver module.

[chirp_users] Fix Numbers In A CSV File
by K0LNY_Glenn 29 May '22

29 May '22

Hi, I have a CSV file for a radio that had a channel zero, and I want to start it with a one, but I don't want to rewrite a couple hundred cells. Does libra Calc have the ability to allow me to select the column and fix the numbers? So now I have two #1s and I'd like to add a 1 to subsequent numbers. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] r-tone freq
by K0LNY_Glenn 29 May '22

29 May '22

Hi, I had obtained my original CSV file that I import into different radios, with editions, according to the radio. I was wondering about the r-tone freq column. All of mine are 88.5, and I'm guessing that r-tone is receive tone, which if it is that, I think that I will only hear other radios with the same r-tone frequency. Is this what the r-tone freq is? If so, I will remove all of them. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] Tytera 9800 Programming
by K0LNY_Glenn 29 May '22

29 May '22

Hi, A vender of this radio tels how to expand the range of the four bands on this radio, some of the info I pasted below, but the software I downloaded from the Tytera site does not recognize the com port settings, it says the baud rate is wrong, but it only offers 115200 and 57 hundred and something. It read the com port first as com 3 and when that didn't work, I then I changed it to 13 in device manager and restarted the program, and it found it again on 13, but it still did not offer the right baud rate as an option, I changed it in device manager two times, trying its options for baud rate, but it still does not work. I tried putting it to 9600 in device manager, but it kept its own selection in the Tyt software. So, I'd like to use Chirp, but I read on line that I can't expand the frequency capabilities with Chirp. Does anyone know if this is the case? Here's what I got from a vendor's site: Glenn How the unlock the frequency ranges? 1. Connect your TH-9800 with the programming software and load (''read'') it to the software 2. Press ''CtrL+F11'' and enter the password ''9800TYT''; 3. Edit the frequency range: Maximum Frequency Range: - 26-33MHz (RX/TX) (AM band RX) - 47-54MHz (RX/TX) (AM band RX) - 136-174MHz (RX/TX) - 400-480MHz (RX/TX) 4. Write to the radio, turn off the radio and then turn it back on. Now, it can work in the expected frequency range.

Hi - has anyone with a modern Linux OS succeeded in installing a working copy of chirp using flatpak? By a modern Linux I mean one with version of python3 greater then 3.6 - in general In a terminal window, type python3 and it will print out the version of python3 when it starts up. For instance, the version of python3 on my machine is Python 3.10.4 -- Cinaed
