[chirp_users] Python 3
by Tate KA7O 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

Being eager can bite ya in the, uh, yea.... So, like a dummy, without reading up first, I updated my primary workstation to Fedora 32. Now that Python2 isn't even a mainline option in F-32, I'm eager for a Python3 variant of Chrip. I found this: https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Linux_Python3 Doesn't work here. Seems all the drivers have multiple syntax errors for Python3. I know it's a work in progress - and one day it'll be available - any rumors or rumors of news in the mean time? Thanks! -- Casper ARC - W7VNJ www.casperarc.net <http://casperarc.net> <http://wyominghamcon.org>

Very useful. I immediately put it at the top of the notes that I keep for Chirp. And I wondered about chirp, CHIRP, Chirp...is there a "name" for this app, or is it whatever we happen to type. It's not consequential...I just wondered if CHIRP is an acronym for something. Rich

Re: [chirp_users] chirp_users Digest, Vol 136, Issue 15

For a strictly analog UHF / VHF hand-held, I would highly recommend the Yaesu FT-60R. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of other Yaesu handi-talkies, but the radio is compact, sounds great, receives 1000% better than the Baofeng I own and is only $159 . > 9.

There is something to be said for not upgrading unless you want to, and then there is the attraction of some of the newer inexpensive gear. But I still use my Radio Shack HTX-202 (1990s?). Bought it new, and don't regret it. RS made some good, if unattractive, gear. It is a solid performer, but old enough that it does not play well with the new radio management software. I still use it for dedicated ops, like and APRS & up/downlink for high alt balloon missions. That way I don't tie up another radio for that, and I can count on its solid signal to control the instrument package @ 35km. But I admit that my BaoFeng are great for supporting local volunteer ops, especially when I can exchange an event-specific chirp image with the group, and we can all be on the same page. I just cart along my laptop, and sync all our radios. I still use my TS-830 for HF, and though I know it doesn't have all the DSP bells and whistles, it sure works nicely on phone and CW.

Hello Friends, I am using an 8 year old radio, Wouxun KG-UV3D. It’s worked well for my limited use. I’m looking to get a new hand-held radio under $400. Any suggestions on radios not made in China? Suggestions on Chinese radios? Thanks for your expertise! Deuce

[chirp_users] CHIRP on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and WINE
by Tom Consodine 21 Apr '20

21 Apr '20

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS will be released in a few days. I installed the beta version of Xubuntu to see how it works. Ubuntu has dropped Python 3 and the old repo version of CHIRP. The chirp-daily Linux tarball will no longer run locally because of Python 2 no longer being available. A lot of people using CHIRP on Linux are not going to be happy. I installed the Windows version of chirp-daily on WINE 5.0 and it appears to work but the GUI theme looks terrible and the memory editor column order isn't saved if I rearrange the columns. Are there any other Windows DLLs or components that should be installed with winetricks to improve CHIRP's appearance or functionality when running it under WINE? Tom ND5Y

[chirp_users] ICOM ID-1 Support
by IT1 Stuart Blake Tener, USNR 20 Apr '20

20 Apr '20

Dan, et alia: I have an ICOM ID-1 radio and the software that ICOM provides for it is "operating software" not programming software. Does Chirp support the ID-1 and if not, how difficult would it be to add support? I can send in a personality file for the ID-1 if that helps any. Thanks in advance and stay healthy. 73, Stuart, N3GWG

[chirp_users] Python 3 status?
by Richard Shaw 18 Apr '20

18 Apr '20

I just wanted to check and see what the status is of the Python 3 branch. I see there have been some commits but not for a couple of months. Is the py3 branch usable yet? Fedora 32 is in beta so that means Fedora 31 (the last release containing chirp) only has about 5 months left before going EOL. Thanks, Richard KF5OIM

[chirp_users] Chirp will not start in Fedora 31 nor 32 beta. Works fine in 30
by Fred 10 Apr '20

10 Apr '20

Since I am mostly confined to home due to the restrictions caused by the virus outbreak, I decided to up grade my Linux system from Fedora 30 to the current version which is Fedora 31. After the upgrade, Chirp and a Solitary game which is written in Python no longer worked so I upgraded to the new beta version Fedora 32. This morning, the developers released an update which included many Python changes which fixed the Solitary game but sadly, not Chirp. So, maybe the Chirp developers will have the answer. Here is the output of starting the 20200227 Chirp version with -v: [fred@m5a97r2 chirp-daily]$ ./chirpw -v Traceback (most recent call last): File "./chirpw", line 20, in <module> from chirp import chirp_common File "/home/fred/chirp/chirp-daily/chirp/chirp_common.py", line 979 except errors.InvalidDataError, e: ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax [fred@m5a97r2 chirp-daily]$ The ~/.chirp/debug.log entries are dated 2020-03-14 which are from a Chirp run before upgrading from Fedora 30. A bit of an aside: Is this a Python issue in Chirp or a missing Python 2 file in Fedora 32? I notice that when the command "dnf list --installed | grep python" there is a python3.x86_64, but the python2 file is named python27.x86_64. There is no python2.x86_64 file but there is in Fedora 30 a file python2.x86_64. Although, the which command shows both a /usr/bin/python3 and a /usr/bin/python2 file exist in Fedora 32. There are several link files in /usr/bin/ with python names that seem to be new additions and probably sort all that out though. Thanks for the help. Fred

With our encoding the radio would not actually transmit the DCS code, rendering it ineffective. Fixes #7777

Re: [chirp_users] Baofeng UV-5RA...lost first words
by Bill Riess 04 Apr '20

04 Apr '20

I didn't see if the original message said this was via a repeater or direct. If via a repeater, realize some repeaters have a slight delay, especially if the carrier is allowed to drop between transmissions and/or it uses PL/DPL. Some dual mode repeaters (analog/digital) can exhibit this behavior. Also, at least one repeater in my area has a delay (1-2 seconds) on the first transmission in a conversation to discourage "pinging" the repeater.

Email lists are strange. Gmail doesn't send you back your own posts, which was the original setting "way" back in 1980s when everyone was on a 300 baud modem and phone lines. Conserve valuable bandwidth in those days. Now sending you your own message takes a few milliseconds. I still use mutt and thunderbird, both have "bounce" functions because sometimes my list subscribers think they have to send their emails to me for forwarding to the list. Bouncing an email makes it look like it was sent by the original sender to the final addressee - which in my case is always the email list, but it can be abused to fool people, Person A sends me and email, I bounce it to Person B and Person B thinks it was sent directly from Person A. You can see it came through me if you look at the headers. I did have my email list set up that way in 1994 when I started that list as a "one way" email list. Finally when google announced it was doing free lists, I jumped at the chance. I also printed newsletters using a Commodore 64 and GeoPublish - wow that's going back some. 73 DR N1EA On Tue, Mar 31, 2020 at 7:16 PM David <weather(a)lightingunlimited.com> wrote: > Ok another question, > > If I am responding to a post do I use "reply" or do I use "reply list"? > I use Thunderbird for email. > > David > > On 3/31/2020 10:21 AM, NE1EE - Rich wrote: > > David asked if I got a new thread...so I logged into the email > > package > to see.

David asked if I got a new thread...so I logged into the email package to see. NO...my "new" subject is under a thread of Yaesu FT-7100 Baofeng UV-5RA showing the hijacked message My message appears in the same 5RA thread. I was under the impression that, though the standard called out the use of In-Reply-To, it was rarely used. Not the case here, as the mail package correctly identified the thread. I suppose that has some usefulness, because someone could preserve the thread and change the subject, providing a clue to someone of the thread content. So ... You need to start a new message.

[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-5RA...lost first words
by Bill Card 31 Mar '20

31 Mar '20

This is relating to the discussion about... >> "I am using a UV-5RA and it has about a sec delay before I hear the other person talk is this normal or is there a setting someplace that I can change? A real pain as it cuts off the other persons one or 2 first words." I've followed the discussion but haven't seen anyone mention that, if the other person in your communication is using VOX, you'll lose the first few words of his/her transmission. When I used to use it with CBs on motorcycles, we had to blow into the mic, wait a second, then transmit to avoid loss of the first few words. So it might not be your radio at all.

Thanks for reposting this so clearly. It is unfortunate that our "reflex" seems to be to skip that first step. I do something similar: TH-D72A as found 20200320 then TH-D72A HAM NOAA 20200327a TH-D72A HAM NOAA FRS GMRS MURS SL 20200327a TH-D72A HAM NOAA FRS GMRS MURS SL 20200327b so that the saved file shows the content of the configuration. That way I can have several. I will often sit down and create different configs on the same day, so I change the "HAM NOAA" part to show that. TH-D72A GOTR2020 20200327a (to support a local event) I use "20200327a" > "20200327b" when I update a config the same day, and want to keep track of the changes. That way, if I screw up, I can go back and start over, but don't have to reload the whole radio. ~R~ 73 de Rich NE1EE On the banks of the Piscataqua On 2020-03-30 18:43:-0400, you wrote: >(1) The first thing you must do with CHIRP is download from the radio to create an image (.img file) for CHIRP to use for your radio.

I hauled out my FT-7100 and thought I'd give CHIRP a try for programming it since it's no in the list of supported radios. Everything went smoothly until I tried to connect to the radio. I'm using a Tripp-Lite USB to Serial adapter and my Win10 machine shows in on port 10. When trying to upload a newly edited copy of an old .eep file, I eventually receive a message that says it can't connect to the radio. Looking for troubleshooting ideas. Dick W4RSS

Hello, I have 2 UV-5R's, Baofeng, which I am attempting to program with a linux, Zorinos, and a Retevis cable, which I bought with the radios. I have programmed these radios before using a windows laptop. Now I am unable to get the radio to communicate with CHIRP. It goes into clone mode and then I get a "Radio did not respond" error message. This is using /dev/ttyS4, which is the first one I got a response from. I am very much the n00b to linux and CHIRP and could use some clear directions please. Thank you, -- Joel F. Leland

I thought I sent this email the other day but must have started writing it and never sent. Is there any documented cases of Chirp bricking a radio so badly it had to be sent back for a factory restore. I see so many Yaesu users bring this up that they're afraid to use Chirp because it will break a radio bad enough to void warranty etc. etc... Dennis M.

[chirp_users] QYT-KT8900D
by Terry Hunt 08 Mar '20

08 Mar '20

I have several radios that I program using CHIRP, running Linux the manufacture software isn't usually compatible., so thank you to everyone that works so hard to make CHIRP a success. I have an 8900D that seems to program perfectly with one exception. This radio has four monitor slots on the front panel. When programming, the first two work great, number 3 and 4 however do not. Some settings like choosing the channel or frequency mode do work, but setting a default channel on them do not, they always come up to channel 0 after the restart. Does anyone else have this issue? Thanks, Terry

[chirp_users] How do I search in a frequency list?
by Ryan Stoner 07 Mar '20

07 Mar '20

Living in Chicago means the RadioReference frequency list I download is pretty big. I'd like to search through to pick specific entries in chirp but I can't figure out how. Control + F brings up a small text entry box at the bottom right of the window that searches for a channel number but nothing else. Maybe I'm a dullard? -- t. Ryan Stoner

[chirp_users] copying from BF 3TP to BF GT-5TP
by Hugh & Sylvia Greenwood 28 Feb '20

28 Feb '20

I hate to bother the group with this, but here we go. I have 2 Bao Feng GT-3TP units, no problem using CHIRP to transfer between them using the latest daily build and the recommended configurations from the home CHIRP page. Editing works fine and changes transfer properly. But when I try to do exactly the same from the 3-TP to the 5-TP the cloning fails because I cannot open the panel giving access to the UV 82 HP configuration that is required. I can download from the radio just fine, and upload to the radio, so the program cloning is talking to the GT-5TP. When I go to 'file' and get the file I want to put in the GT-5TP, the system will not give me access to the proper configuration for that radio because somehow it has lost the configuration inherited from down loading and uploading. I tried using the 'export csv' option, with the same result. Sorry to be simple but I'm stumped. Hugh VE7MDA

[chirp_users] question about uv-9r plus
by Frits Schouten 28 Feb '20

28 Feb '20

Hello all, I've just received my new UV-9R PLUS and copied the channels from my old UV-5R onto it. That went actually very painless. Now my question is: why are the channel names not shown on the UV-9R? I am in channel mode and the channel names are shown on the chirp software. What am I missing here. Regards, Frits Schouten.
