[chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating
by Charles Gierke 26 Aug '20

26 Aug '20

On Wednesday my 2 BaoFeng UV 5R radios could download and upload to CHIRP. On Friday all I got was the following message: Radio Did Not Respond. I tried reloading the latest version of CHIRP, no change. I tried an earlier version of CHIRP, no change. I reloaded the latest version back, no change. Visually the radio's red light blinks then the LED display blinks then the error message shows up on CHIRP. Any suggestions? Thanks Chuck KJ7INT

As a matter of fact, once you find something that you want to respond to, go to the web interface for this group and reply to THAT message. That way, you are replying in context and the subject line reflects what you are responding to. Much cleaner. Mike, WB4TTZ -----Original Message----- >From: "Nigel A.

Hi, I have a x86 20.04 system, I can't find the PPA even after doing apt-add-repository and similar steps.

[chirp_users] Issue with Retevis RT24
by Michael Urspringer 17 Aug '20

17 Aug '20

Although Retevis RT24 seems to be supported by CHIRP I cannot connect to it. I get the message "Radio refused to enter programming mode 2". I am using software version " chirp-daily-20200807". If I use the original Retevis software I can read and write the device without a problem so I guess it should not be an issue with the USB-Serial driver. Does anybody have an idea what I do wrong here? Thanks, Michael

No I didn't download anything from UV 9R to Chirp but I reset the radio to default which most people say you do then reset it to English, so you say download the content to Chirp then put in what you need i/E Marine channel then it will upload afresh. Please tell me I'm correct it does let me put my radio model in on a drop down do I do that as well Thanks in advance Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

Hi, Is there any demand, or need, for Chirp to support the Alinco DJ-VX 50 HE (european variant) handy talkie? I have the handset, the programming cable, as well as the free software to read and write to the handset, and I have successfully read and written to my handset. The instructions on how to develop support for a new handset look feasible, so I could volunteer to make a patch if this was of interest. -- Regards, François Génolini MM7MCT

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-20200807 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #629 [Rick DeWitt <aa0rd(a)yahoo.com>] [ic2730] Fix for issue #8159; reversed E/F DTMF codes [Martin Cooper <mfncooper(a)gmail.com>] Fix Icom radio detection Icom radio detection has been broken for a long time, because the detection code is expecting to be passed a radio instance, but is being passed a serial port instead. Since we are trying to determine the model, we don't have the relevant class yet. Instead, create a minimal radio instance to allow us to query for the model. These changes fix both the 'Detect' option in the 'Download From Radio' menu and the 'chirpc --id' command. Fixes #7905 [Jim Unroe <rock.unroe(a)gmail.com>] [AT778-UV] Update Allowed Radio Types for AnyTone AT778-UV This patch adds "V100" to list of "ALLOWED_RADIO_TYPES".

Re: [chirp_users] Icom IC-207H
by Martin Cooper 30 Jul '20

Hi Robert, The gating factor is usually the radio. If none of the developers has one, or has access to one, that makes it very difficult to assess what's needed in the driver, and impossible to test any code that's written. This is why you'll see an "equipment loan offered" field in the issue tracker. Martin. KD6YAM On Wed, Jul 29, 2020 at 12:19 PM robert.m.shaw <robert.m.shaw(a)verizon.net> wrote: > Martin, > > Thanks.

[chirp_users] Installing Chirp on a 20.04 system.
by wa0sbu＠kslimmer.com 28 Jul '20

28 Jul '20

I hope this helps, and doesn't confuse too much. I have tested this procedure on several of my systems. Hopefully I didn't skip something. You don't need to download Python 2.7 from the Python WEB page, or download the flatpak. Its in Focals,(20.04)Repositories. These are all terminal commands, don't use the quotes. "sudo apt install python2" will install 2.7 "ls -ls /usr/bin/python*" will list your versions of python installed. In my case 2.7 and 3.8 Add the Chirp repository: "sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots" Update: "sudo apt update" Next Step from The Chirp WEB page: "sudo apt-get install chirp-daily" Returns an error. "E: Unable to locate package chirp-daily" In terminal, open your file manager as sudo. I use Xubuntu, so I use "Sudo thunar" Your command will match your desktop. Using mousepad, or text editor, Edit, "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/dansmith-ubuntu-chirp-snapshots-focal.list" Change: "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/dansmith/chirp-snapshots/ubuntu focal main" to: "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/dansmith/chirp-snapshots/ubuntu bionic main" "sudo apt update" "sudo apt-get install chirp-daily" Another error: "The following packages have unmet dependencies" And a list of 4 of them. Download the first missing file: "https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/python-libxslt1/download" Save it, don't open it. "cd Downloads" "sudo dpkg -i python-libxslt1_1.1.29-5ubuntu0.2_amd64.deb" Another error: "sudo apt install -f" "sudo apt-get install chirp-daily" Now we are down to 3 missing dependencies.

[chirp_users] Ubuntu 20.04: no installation candidate
by teslas_moustache 28 Jul '20

28 Jul '20

Hi I'm trying to install Chirp on ubuntu 20.04. I've added the PPA and updated my repos, but chirp is still unavailable. I tried changing the repo from "focal main" to "bionic main" just to see if it works, but that results in unresolvable dependencies. It looks like no .deb file is available for AMD64. http://ppa.launchpad.net/dansmith/chirp-snapshots/ubuntu/pool/main/c/chirp-… Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

[chirp_users] Ft-817 no longer connecting
by mason fann 27 Jul '20

27 Jul '20

I have used CHIRP a few months ago to program my Yaesu FT-817ND with no problems. It no longer seems to work. I get the "Failed to communicate with radio: Radio did not ack block 0". This happens on upload. Download just causes the radio to show "Clone Mode Error". The cable works as I tested it with Maclogger and all functions worked. CHIRP also works with a Kenwood HT I tested. I have tried with Daily-20200107 that i was using last time and Daily-20200718 builds. Same error. Any ideas on what I can try next? Thanks K0MAS

[chirp_users] update for LM20
by Joel Lautzenheiser 25 Jul '20

I'm sure by now that you are aware that Linux Mint has gone to 20 and if I understand it right they have changed Pkg bases. Are there plans to upgrade chirp to work with this or should we hold off for now? Just curious as I still have one laptop that I have not upgraded for this reason. Thanks for any info you can give. 73 Joel k4dkx

Gary: 1) Don't hijack a thread. The Abbree (a handhead) is not the same as a Baojie (mobile). 2) The Abbree looks like a Baofeng BF-A58 (144/440) or a BF-A58S (Tri-band). Try one of those.

[chirp_users] Error using CHIRP with my AnyTone AT778-UV
by Tony Moriarty 19 Jul '20

19 Jul '20

Hi. Firstly, although I've used Chirp for years, this is the first time I've used this forum - please be patient with me! I was delighted to discover recently that Chirp now supports the Anytone 778-UV - I've had one for a while, and the "other" software available for it was rather limited. Anyway, having downloaded the latest daily build and attempted to read the radio, I'm getting an error message that includes the text : "Radio version not in allowed list for AnyTone-778UV: 000: 49 41 54 37 37 38 55 56 IAT778UV 008: 01 56 31 30 30 00 00 06 .V100..." It appears that Chirp is correctly interacting with the radio via the relevant com port, but doesn't like what the radio tells it. Since there doesn't seem to have been a rash of issues raised on this subject, I didn't want to raise it as a bug report till I'd made enquiries here. My PC runs an up-to-date installation of Windows 10 The debug file includes the following (I've chopped out lines that don't seem relevant!): [2020-07-19 08:50:02,053] chirp.logger - DEBUG: CHIRP daily-20200718 on WinVista/7 (Python 2.7.10) . . .

[chirp_users] Trouble Importing Channels
by Glenn K0LNY 14 Jul '20

14 Jul '20

Hi All, Hoping someone here will be able to help. Ubuntu 16.43, and I'm trying to import a CSV file that I have used on my Baofengs, onto a new radio. It is a Wouxun KG UV 7D. I selected the 6D in the radio list in the Chirp radio selection, since when looking for the manual at the Wouxun site, I contacted them looking for the manual and they suggested I use the 6D manual, because the only difference is the power. So the 6D selection should work in Chirp, it would seem. My radio is the 2 & 6 meter model. One thing it says is that I have an error on line 74, and I looked at that with Libra Office and couldn't find any problem. But it leaves out a local repeater channel that normally goes right into a Baofeng with Chirp, and it also left out the 6 meter channels I put in. The channel numbers are there, but no values in the fields. If anyone has any ideas, or can look over my CSV file, I would much appreciate it. Thanks. Glenn

[chirp_users] Python 3? GTK3?
by Greg Troxel 14 Jul '20

14 Jul '20

I and a few others are working on updating the chirp package in pkgsrc from the last release to a daily snapshot. That caused me to look at our package, and I see that it depends on py-gtk2, which in pkgsrc is marked as python 2.7 only. In general we're trying to have packages be able to build with python 3 when that's doable. I went to see if we were missing a py-gtk update that let it use python 3, and we have the last PyGTK release from upstream 2.24.0 that actally has source code. I don't understand 2.24.2 but that seems to be windows installers only and no sources. https://pypi.org/project/PyGTK/#history FWIW, pkgsrc's current dependencies are: $ pkg_info chirp Information for chirp-20200622: Comment: Tool for programming Amateur Radio HTs Requires: py27-serial>=2.7 desktop-file-utils>=0.10nb1 python27>=2.7.1nb2 py27-libxml2>=2.6.27 py27-gtk2>=2.24.0nb33 I looked in the unpacked daily src tarball and didn't find a README that explained what dependencies are required for chirp. So I wonder: Are people using py-gtk2 with python 3? Is there some other py-gtk2 I should be finding? Is there any option to use py-gobject, or some other gtk bindings instead? Is there any option to use gtk3 instead? Is anything on the dependency list above spurious/missing? 73 de n1dam

not sure how to reply to messages, not seen a forum like this before.. on in my Chirp i select radio BF-A58S is 'settings' and then 'other settings' i have VHF lower limit 136Mhz upper limit 174Mhz UHF lower limit 400mhz upper limit 520Mhz i can't see anything which mentions 200Mhz to 260Mhz ?? hence why i'm unsure that if i start adding 220Mhz channels and such like that when i try to upload it'll either deny them or brick the radio.. yes i have half a dozen already programmed in by the factory, but also all the 220 channels and a couple of UHF have a \ next to them where it's meant to say channel name..

[chirp_users] BF-A58S Tri-band and Chirp
by Mark Thompson 11 Jul '20

11 Jul '20

Just bought a Tri-band version of the A58S, and although Chirp downloads from radio in either A58, A58S or even UV-5R-XYZmk3Turbo whatever it is. when i download the radios stock configuration i see VHF and UHF frequencies including 220Mhz. but Chirp only says this radio is VHF and UHF and not 220Mhz. so when i download all seems good. configuration only shows as dual band. my issue is although i can ad 220Mhz frequencies to the memories, i dare'nt upload in case the radio goes to VHF and UHF only and i lose the 220Mhz. will it lose 220Mhz if i upload as a dual band and not tri-band ?? wil the tri-band frequencies install although Chirp say's it's dual band ?? any one ?? thanks.. <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_cam…> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_cam…> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>
