[chirp_users] Using CHIRP to programme Entel HX470 radios
by chrisgarlandhome＠gmail.com 03 Dec '21

03 Dec '21

Hi, I've got some old Entel HX470 radios that are in perfect condition and seem to work well, so I want to program them (from whatever they were programmed to by the last user) to PMR446 frequencies. The problems I have are; 1. they are so old that Entel don't hold any records of them (e.g. user manuals) (production ceased 15-20 years ago according to Entel) 2. the ENTEL programming software doesn't include them (HX470) 3. CHIRP doesn't include Entel radios at all. Help! If you've got any ideas, I'm all ears as it seems a shame to bin them just because they can't be programmed at the moment. Thanks in advance! Chris

[chirp_users] Support for Yaesu FTM-400XDR?
by Kevin Zembower 27 Nov '21

27 Nov '21

Hello, all. Hoping that all who celebrated Thanksgiving had a restful and relaxing holiday. I'm contemplating buying a Yaesu FTM-400XDR mobile transceiver. See http://systemfusion.yaesu.com/ftm-400dr-xdr/. I'm wondering if I have to buy the RT-SYSTEMS ADMS-M400-U software to program it, or if Chirp can do the job. I searched for FTM-400 in the supported models, but didn't find it. I also searched the last six months of email list archives without success. Does anyone know if this model can be programmed with Chirp? Somewhat related, Yaesu offers this software for free download: ADMS-7 Programming Software at https://www.yaesu.com/downloadFile.cfm?FileID=14972&FileCatID=267&FileName=…. Any idea if this is a full programming software system, or just used to update the firmware of the radio? Thank you for your help and advice. -Kevin KC3KZ

Greetings, A new daily build of CHIRP is available. This includes changes made directly to the tree yesterday, and may include additional features, bug fixes, and/or bugs. If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location: http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-20211118 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #668 [Dan Smith <dsmith(a)danplanet.com>] Fix missing _gmrs attribute on btech base class Related to the fix for #9407 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [KT-8R] Settings tab empty for QYT KT-8R The Settings tabs in CHIRP are empty when the KT-8R has TMR set to M+ABCD. This driver was derived from the QYT mobile radios which only have 15 TMR selections. This radio has a 16 TMR selections similar to the BTech mobile radios so so setting it to the 16th choice puts it out-of-range based on the current programming. This patch adds 16 TMR choices support for the QyT KT-8R. Fixes #9051 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [DB25-G] Radioddity DB25-G This patch adds support for the Radioddity DB25-G GMRS mobile radio. resolves #9407

Well according to the VERY Limited documentation the USB is charging and Frequency Download. I also tried them with other FRS radios, and not transmitting on FRS. I will get out the scanner and check with that. I don't see it showing up as a port on windows or a TTY device on linux when I plug it in. Probably just going back to Amazon. --- ======================= Chas.

I had both these problems in the past. The first time, I came here for advice, and following it, I found that the plug into the radio was not really all the way in, despite my pushing with what I thought was the right amount of force. So I got in a habit of pushing until I felt it fully seated. The next time it happened...different radio and different cable...I found that I had to remove a slight amount of material from the plug so that it would go in all the way. I think I used a nail file to remove small amounts until it fit.

A good friend just bought 2 ea of the subject radios and finds that both the FRS and GMRS transmit functions are "locked out". He can receive, but not transmit. Is there an easy way to fix this? I have not yet investigated this on the web, but thought I might ask here first. Ken W7EKB

[chirp_users] Uv5r’s went tx after chirp config

I have 3 uv5r radios Ive configured the way I’d like them, and ordered 4 more to do the same. The original 3 are in perfect Working order. When ever I try to clone the new 4 they do nothing when I try to transmit . The channels all take after cloning but I can’t use the radio. Function restores after a factory reset. Radios were purchased from the same vendor, and my new cable was purchased from the same vendor as well . first one was flawless but misplaced. Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone

Power on massage field is grey'd out for Btech UV-5X3 so cannot set message. No error messages. All other features to upload programing to this radio work ! I can activate the power on message via the radio menu but it reverts back to no message after uploading from CHIRP. I tested this same daily build to activate the power on message on a BF-F8HP, BF-F8+III as well as a Yaesu FT2900, all worked without issue?

Re: [chirp_users] Problem with Retevis RT98 2M mobile

Adding to my previous note: I was able to download the Retevis software and read/program my radio, so the comms between laptop & radio should be OK. When I went to the mfg website snd selected the RT98 Vhf radio, I was told to use the proper software based on my radios serial number. My radio serial # is 1907.... so I used V1.01, there is another version (1.02?) for radios with a higher serial number range. I suspect CHIRP isn't handling the particular model I have well. I'm good to program my radio for my needs, but I'm happy to help with testing/debugging if needed to improve support for this radio.

[chirp_users] Wouxun UV9D MATE transmit range
by chris＠imagineimagery.com 01 Sep '21

01 Sep '21

Hello, thanks in advance for any help you may offer. As a member of my county search & rescue team, I have always used CHIRP to program my handhelds to be able to communicate on our county SAR channels, in the 155 range. With my old Wouxun KG-UV8D, there was an area in the CHIRP settings tab to expand the transmit range into these frequencies… I just upgraded to the KG-UV9D MATE. Although not listed in the official supported radios list for CHIRP, the radio does connect and is programmable as a KG-UV9D PLUS. Understandable as they are practically the same radio. However, the same “transmit range” field that is available in CHIRP settings when I connect to my UV8D isn’t available on the 9D. Is this something that might become available in an update, or is there a workaround? TIA Chris Miller

A few days ago I saw some email exchanges where some people with MacOS , presumably running Mojave or earlier are having problems getting it to start at all. It would quietly fail without any errors. There is actually a solution posted months ago. I’m wondering since this is a known issue, why haven’t this 2 character modification fix been pushed in the macOS default code branch? Anyways, here’s the url to the solution which I always apply when ever I update my CHIRP installation. https://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/8845 Lynda W5EGL
