Hello chirp_users, I am registered but my registration details are not accepted by chirp and when I try to change them it says that I am already registered! So I cannot go throught the usual procedures to make a request. I would like the Puxing PX888 to be added to the list of radios that chirp can handle. I can't understand why it isn't already supported, there must be thousands of them out there, but hey, there you go.

[chirp_users] GT-3TP Radio not responding
by R J Bregenzer 13 Jul '17

13 Jul '17

When I first tried to use CHIRP to program my new radio checked the list and noted that my radio was not on it. So I used the GT-3WP radio notation in the info box thinking it would be close or similar since it had the same model prefix. But it didn't work and still got error messages. Recently I did some more reading and found the info about using model BF-F8HP to program my GT-3TP. This hasn't worked either, I still get an error. There is also a note that comes up saying that the driver for the radio is experimental and do I want to continue. I use the BF-F8HP radio in the info box then a few moments later the error box comes up that the radio is not responding. Is there a possibility that when I was first trying to use CHIRP with the GT-3WP radio notation in the info box, that it corrupted something in the radio making any other connection impossible? Thanks for any help or suggestions. R.J. Bregenzer KE8AET

[chirp_users] BTECH UV-50X2 - won't enter clone mode
by Bryan Cowger 12 Jul '17

12 Jul '17

Hello, I'm new to this list and am afraid I'm probably asking a stupid question, but I've searched through the website for about an hour and can't seem to find the answer to my issue. I am running the latest daily build and trying to program my new BTECH UV-50X2. When I try to download from the radio, I get an error that the radio did not enter clone mode. I'm attaching my debug.log file. Is there something I need to do to get the radio to enter clone mode? Thank you, Bryan

[chirp_users] Lexien VV-898/ Jetstream JT270 Channel Names.
by Gary Chambers 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Question: When programming my Lexien VV-898 with chirp, the alpha-numeric memory channel names get assigned to the wrong channels, always three channels off, channels 1,2 and 3 are assigned a generic name of A001, A002, A003 or B001, B002, B003 depending on which memory bank is selected. Although, the Ch 1 programmed name is assigned to channel 4, the channel 4 freq, offset, tones are correct. The radio uses the Jetstream jt270 software. Both banks share the same symptoms. Is there something simple I'm missing or a work around??? Gary Chambers KG5TQE Sent from my iPhone

[chirp_users] KT-8900 "extra ID wrong" issue
by Wm. A. Besore 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Jim, I have spent over an hour trying to sign on and "open an issue". I gave up. Here is what is going on. The "366766" is an internal passcode in the KT-8900 that was entered on initialization of the radio. By holding down the F-Key and powering up at the same time, the ability to enter a passcode is presented in the radio's display. When this screen first appears it shows six underscore lines. I assume these are analogous to spaces. But, I can't find any way to get the radio to accept six blank spaces in the passcode. It insists that six digits be entered. Than and only then will it finish powering up, show memory channel frequencies on the display and go into normal RX/TX operation. Also, I have tried to register with the CHIRP Forum by replying to the confirmation email. However, when I try to sign in it says I am not valid and that I need to register again. When I try to register again I am told that my signon and password are already in use. Catch 22. Thus, I have not been able to "open an issue". CHIRP works great with my Baofeng UV-5R, but it just doesn't like the QYT KT-8900. Thanks for your ongoing support, Bill Wm. A. BeSore - K0WB wmabesore(a)aol.com

Lat+Lon..vs UTM We use UTM in our Search And Rescue operations.

Re: [chirp_users] No Data (John Laiosa)
by Christopher F. Beesley 07 Jul '17

Hello John, Chris here, a G4 for quite some time! What you and everybody else with data communications problems between their computers and their radios are missing is a USB interface. This business of having to use exactly the right cable, exactly the right driver from the dim and distant past, and in some cases having to modify the shape of either the radio or the data lead to make them fit, is an absolute nonsense and has been for many years. I read the emails to chirp-users and I would guess that at least 70% of them concern problems with data transfer. I will not be buying another radio with a data interface unless it is to the world-wide standard for USB, including both hardware and software. In this respect it is high time that the manufacturers of radio equipment dragged themselves into the 21st Century. I am not a fan of Bill Gates because of the damage he has done to computing as a whole over the last 40 years, but apart from the name, at least he got the USB interface right. I mean, fancy calling a digital communications interface 'Upper Side Band'!

After multiple failures with the Mac, I decides to use my work Windows laptop. Got everything setup and working. However when I upload from the radio the spread sheet is empty. The radio indicates it is "waiting" and beeps when it is done, but there is nothing on the spread sheet. I tried uploading to the radio and that did not work either. It appears if the data rate and/or the connection is not correct. What I am missing? Thanks for the help. John N1BSO -- Sent from John's iPhone

Esteemed reflectees, here is my humble suggestion: use WW Locator (ie. JO70FB) everywhere, where geographical coordinates (Lat, Long) are requested. We in EU using mostly WW Locator for such purposes, some guys are not comfortable with coordinates... 73, Martin, OK1RR

[chirp_users] Baofeng GT-3TP - Programing difficulty
by Danny Mason 05 Jul '17

05 Jul '17

Hi, last month ago I purchased two of these radios and after attempting to program them with the provided software to no avail, I was introduced to CHIRP by a friend of a friend. He had just completed successfully programming two separate brand name’s of radios. However when we got to the Baofeng GT-3TP radios his luck to change. We have tried everything we could find on the CHIRP WEB PAGE but have never gotten beyond cloning screen, it says: “AN ERROR HAS OCCURRED”. We were using the BF-F8HP model selection and have followed every direction we could find, step by step and did so utilizing Windows XP, 7 and 10. Nothing worked for us! I am now on my own in trying to program these and am a beginner… So, can anyone advise me what to do next please? Thanks in advance, Danny Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10

[chirp_users] TS-2000 CVS imports fail...
by Allan 04 Jul '17

04 Jul '17

What am I doing wrong to program 100 Kenwood TS-2000 memories the easy way with Chirp??? I installed CHIRP daily-20170627 on Mint 18.2, downloaded my radio, wrote out a CSV file, constructed what I want, saved that CSV, and when I try to import it, via: start Chirp, start radio, DL radio: I see the existing memories fine. I import my CSV file: "There was an error during import: `?' is not in valid list: t: ['WFM', 'FM', 'NFM', 'AM', 'NAM', 'DV', 'USB', 'LSB', 'CW', 'RTTY', 'DIG', 'PKT', 'NCW', 'NCWR', 'CWR', 'P25', 'Auto', 'RTTYR', 'FSK', 'FSKR', 'DMR'] I click OK and Chirp appears to hang with the message: "Preparing memory list..." (I kill it after 10 minutes). I've looked at my CSV file: there is no '?' character in the file. I see nothing wrong (I fixed default values for rToneFreq and cToneFreq). Here's a shorter CSV I tried, same results: Location,Name,Frequency,Duplex,Offset,Tone,rToneFreq,cToneFreq,DtcsCode,DtcsPolarity,Mode,TStep,Skip,Comment,URCALL,RPT1CALL,RPT2CALL 100,CREDIT ,29.62,-,0.1,,88.5,88.5,23,NN,FM,5,,,,, 101,BLOOMIN,29.66,-,0.1,Tone,100,88.5,23,NN,FM,5,,,,, 102,CHASKA,53.03,-,0.1,,88.5,88.5,23,NN,FM,5,,,,, 103,FALCON ,53.15,-,0.1,,88.5,88.5,23,NN,FM,5,,,,, 104,CREDIT ,53.33,-,0.1,,88.5,88.5,23,NN,FM,5,,,,, If even fails if I try to import the exported file previous read.

Re: [chirp_users] PL tone 146.3 not available to use
by Tom Consodine 02 Jul '17

02 Jul '17

That would not work. Being only 0.1 Hz off is well within the tolerance. All you would have to do is program 146.2 and they would be able to use it. You would need a frequency far enough from the standard ones that a decoder wouldn't recognize it.

Re: [chirp_users] PL tone 146.3 not available to use

OK, good point. So how about... Does anyone have a scanner or $10 SDR receiver that can listen on input! IF the PL is really 146.3, maybe that's for a reason, to prevent unauthorised use or just to block radios that weren't supplied by that manufacturer. Talking of that, do you know who the manufacturer of the repeater is??

[chirp_users] PL tone 146.3 not available to use
by Kyle Colyer 01 Jul '17

01 Jul '17

Hello. I have a baofeng hp 82 and I used the older software to program it and it works great with our repeater. Then I got a btech 50 and downloaded the chirp software to program it but I cannot get it to work right off our repeater. One of the problems is that the pl tone box only has a drop down box and preset pl tones and ours is 146.3. I can't figure out how to put that tone in the chirp program. I have tried to manually input it into the radio itself and it won't work. I had this problem with the bf82 also before I got the software and programmed it with the computer instead of putting it into the radio. Can anyone help?

Hi All, I am using a TK-862G for a repeater link. I can't seem to get the tone squelch to work. I can't set both the tone and tone squelch frequencies at the same time. It does appear to be transmitting a tone but I can't get the tone squelch to work. Thanks! Jonathan

I would double check with the management company. 146.3 might work but there's no way to put it in any commercial radio. Commercial (Motorola, Kenwood, Yaesu and others) have no way to program in that tone frequency. Try 146.2 in your 82 and it should work just fine.

[chirp_users] Baofeng GT3 Mk2 - Offset display bug ?
by BRIAN OXENHAM 29 Jun '17

29 Jun '17

Using a Baofeng GT3 Mk2 Firmware version BFB297 and programming with latest daily build 20170627. If I manually programme a channel into the GT3 for accessing a repeater using the HT keypad all works as expected and the repeater offsets (entered via menu 26) are retained. If I use CHIRP (treating the handset as a UV5R) and upload the same repeater details to the HT, when I look at the HT via menu 26 again the offset display now only reads 000.000. However, the offsets, whilst not correctly displayed, are actually retained in the guts of the HT as I am still able to access the repeater ! B

HI All, I am trying to program a pair of Kenwood TK-862G with the -1 designation for a repeater link. I can read and write to the radio. However, I can't set the frequency to within the ham band, I get an out of range error. One of the radios I have had a ham frequency programmed into it and I can read it and write it to another radio. I have searched for a setting but can't seem to find one that allows me to set the frequency to the ham band. Thanks! Jonathan - KK6RPX

First time user here. Anyone have a good source for a non-counterfeit programming cable for a new GT-3WP? I went through a number of bad cables for the BF888S before finding one which would finally work. TNX for the assistance. Bill alpha272003(a)aol.com

[chirp_users] Incorrect Transfer of Names for Baofeng UV-5R
by Torbjørn Darre 19 Jun '17

19 Jun '17

You were correct that I needed to make a new account without the Ø in oder to installe in Window 10. Thank you for your quidance. I have a new cable and I am able to download and upload from the radio. I have a Baofeng UV-5R radio. This is the first time I do this, I wanted to make a simple data set with only 4 frekvencies in the table. I have activated in the settings that I want frekvency info in the top display (A) and name in the bottom display (B). When I transfer to the radio all the frekvencies are transferred correctly, however the name in the first line is transfered to line (chanel) 0, 2 and 3. Only the name in line 1 (chanel 1) is transfered correctly to the radio. Can you please advise what I need to do in oder to get the names to transfer correctly? -- Regards Torbjørn - LA8TP

So my username is Torbjorn, my PC name is Torbjorn so that should be OK.?? Renaming a user account may not be enough. I'm not sure about Windows 10, but in earlier versions, Windows kept the same user profile... in other words... "under the hood", the directory name associated with that user will still reflect the original username. So make sure you create a NEW user account if you haven't already. You can test CHIRP with the new user account to see if it fixes the problem. If it does... then you can deal with copying your user data from your original user account (if desired). Dave

[chirp_users] Looking for assistance
by Gene Anderson 14 Jun '17

14 Jun '17

Last summer while in China I purchased a Baofeng UV-5R. I found it difficult to program by the keypad, so I later purchased a programming cable and have installed Chirp in an effort to program the radio. I have followed the "Basic Procedure for Programming" from the Chirp Beginner's Guide Wiki. But I get the following error message when trying to "Download from radio": "Radio refused to send block 0x0140" The block address doesn't come up the same every time. I also had these values from a handful of other attempts: (0x0300, 0x0380, 0x0280, 0x0240). The Cloning process does not complete. I am using CHIRP daily-20170603 within Xubuntu 17.04 UV-5R firmware version is: 297 (according to screen info when pressing "3" and turning radio on) USB cable seems to have this USB/serial converter: Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port I am new to VHF/UHF operation and HT operation in general. Not completely new to Linux. Have only one cable and one rig. Here in rural Taiwan at the moment, I don't know anyone else who owns a UV-5R, so I can't test the cable or radio against other units. I did read the FAQ and lots of other info, but nothing I saw there seemed to address my issue. Sincerely yours, BX8AAD

Hi, Does anyone know the pinouts for the mini plugs on either or these? I have to make my own programming cable. I don't see either model listed in the Chirp compatibility list, does anyone know if either of these are supported by Chirp? Thanks, Max

[chirp_users] ID-880H Programming issue
by kd7sjt 10 Jun '17

10 Jun '17

Greetings, It is with a very heavy heart that I have to report that I had to go to the proprietary software for my Icom ID-880H Radio so I could program it. This is after many weeks of troubleshooting, trying to get help from the forums, and finally posting here in a last ditch effort to get some help in resolving the programming problems. A bug report has been filed, but no progress has been made as of yet. I have also found that there is very little support that Chirp has for the Icom ID-880H. My other rigs do work very well with Chirp. I have an Icom IC-91AD; a Kenwood TH-F6A; and an Alinco DR-232MKIII and they all programmed with no problem. I do hope that better support comes soon for the ID-880H as going back and forth between multiple software programs is a hassle, but right now, I don't have a choice. 73, de KD7SJT.

[chirp_users] Bridgecom support?

Does anyone here have a radio from Bridgecom? Their BCM-220 has me interested because it's another entry in the woefully underserved 1.25m band. -- David Griffith dave(a)661.org A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?
