[chirp_users] Puxing PX-888
by Christopher F. Beesley 08 Jun '17

08 Jun '17

Hi guys, Chris G4OUG here. I believe I am a CHIRP member but the CHIRP site won't accept my log-in details. I have emailed someone at CHIRP but havn't had a reply yet. And now to business... Can anybody please explain why the Puxing PX-888 is not supported by CHIRP? On a broader note, I am absolutely fed up of seeing so many people complaining that they need different cables for each of their radios, that the software supplied is next to useless, and in a few cases that CHIRP cannot be used with this or that radio. It is about time that ALL the manufacturers used standard USB interfaces, both hardware (connectors) and software (drivers and protocols). The memory inside the radio should be organised in such a way that a simple spreadsheet such as Excel can be used, the supplied software need only be an example table with a few example records (rows) filled in. Nobody would need any of these stupid serial cables that only work with one radio, and everybody would be able to use tables containing their own programming needs via several versions of Windows, Apple OS's, Linux distros, or whatever, for years to come without any problems. Ok, CHIRP would be redundant. That would be very sad in a lot of ways. But the current state of affairs is intolerable. How about everybody gets together and tells the major manufacturers that we will NOT buy any more of their radios until they implement the programming of them PROPERLY! If I knew how to start such a campaign I'd do it myself, but I am not au fait with Social Media or any of that stuff. Regards, Chris, G4OUG

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-20170608 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #489 [Keith Williamson <hkwilliamson(a)gmail.com>] [vx8] Added Settings support for stock VX-8R radio. Fixes #4881 This patch adds settings support by adding has_settings True in the get_features function, by copying the original _get_aprs_tx_settings function back down to the VX8DRadio class, and by creating a truncated version of that function in the parent VX8Radio class that just gets the settings that are defined for the VX-8R. Also, a _get_settings function for the VX8Radio class was created that calls a subset of functions of the _get_settings function in the VX8DRadio class. The get_features function in the VX8DRadio class has been removed since the one in the VX8Radio class is now the same. [Keith Williamson <hkwilliamson(a)gmail.com>] [vx8] Fix line longer than 79 chars and add missing pad value to seekto format string. Fix #4881

Fixes #4881 Split the memobj aprs struct into three structs: shorter aprs struct, aprs_msg_macro struct and aprs2 struct. The aprs_msg_macro[] struct and aprs2 struct are parameterized differently in the VX8Radio class and VX8DRadio class _mem_params.

There are no behavioral changes to Chirp with this patch. [Keith Williamson <hkwilliamson(a)gmail.com>] [vx8] Simple refactor that moves most VXDRadio class functions to VXRadio parent class.

[Keith Williamson <hkwilliamson(a)gmail.com>] [vx8] Fix issue with VX-8R download from radio. Fixes #4883 This patch ensures that the functions from the correct radio class are called when downloading from the radio.

[chirp_users] Multiple radios, multiple cables
by Tom Marinello 07 Jun '17

07 Jun '17

New to the list, but not new to Chirp. Installed CHIRP in 2013 for my Baofeng UV-5R on my W7 PC. Installed the Prolific 3.2.0.0 drivers, programmed the radio with no problems. Lots of good advice on the Yahoo group. Fast forward to 2017. Got a Kenwood TM-281A from a friend for a base station radio. Ordered a programming cable from an eBay vendor. Installed the Kenwood software, plugged in the cable and had no problem reading from and writing to the Kenwood. Not real impressed with Kenwood's programming software. Decided to see if the radio is supported by CHIRP, downloaded the latest daily build and attempted to use CHIRP. Selected "Download from Radio, selected COM4, Kenwood and TM-281, and pressed OK. Nothing happens at all. If I repeat the process, an error is thrown: "An error has occurred. could not open COM4: [Error 5] Access is denied." Did as much RTFM as I knew how to do. Read Beginner's Guide, read FAQ, Noticed the driver had updated to Prolific 3.8.12.0; downgraded to 3.2.0.0. No change. Cable came with some prolific driver installation software. Included is a "Check PL-2303 chip version" utility. Utility reports "This is a PL-2303 XA/HXA chip." I don't know what my next steps are. Any suggestions? /Tom K6IGY

[chirp_users] Kenwood V71A extra config fields
by Rich Messeder 03 Jun '17

03 Jun '17

After reading the V71A in CHIRP, I looked for the extra configuration fields that I see when I run CHIRP on the Baofeng, but didn't see them. I guess that if CHIRP didn't read them, it won't change them, either, and I can still use the Kenwood MCP to manage those fields? 73 ~R~ NE1EE ARES AEC

[chirp_users] Are CHIRP img files are always backward compatible?
by Rich Messeder 03 Jun '17

03 Jun '17

For each new release of CHIRP, should I read a new file from the radio, open the latest saved file, and copy memories to the new file? The issue prompting this is that I wonder if CHIRP img files are always backward compatible? Sometimes compatible? What is the 'best practice'? 73 ~R~ NE1EE ARES AEC

[chirp_users] *.chirp files
by Rich Messeder 03 Jun '17

03 Jun '17

I saved *.chirp files from the F6A, but can't read them now. I think that they are deprecated, but didn't find that when I looked in the CHIRP rev history...not sure how to search for that specific item. If so, I suppose that I might as well delete all .chirp files? I am using CHIRP 2017-05-26. 73 ~R~ NE1EE ARES AEC

[chirp_users] Copying between the Kenwood F6A and V71A
by Rich Messeder 03 Jun '17

03 Jun '17

I'd like to copy between the F6A to the V71A, but CHIRP does not permit saving Kenwood files. With my Baofeng, I can open multiple CHIRP instances or open different files on different tabs, and copy from one to another. All I can think of is to have them both connected to the computer at the same time, and copy|paste? Or maybe use csv files? I have submitted a feature request to have CHIRP save Kenwood images. 73 ~R~ NE1EE ARES AEC

[chirp_users] Icom ID-880H Compatibility with Chirp
by kd7sjt 31 May '17

31 May '17

Good Morning, I have found through an unbelievable amount of testing with my rigs this weekend, just over 8.5 hours roughly, that CHIRP is NOT compatible with the Icom ID-880H in its current state. I cannot successfully program either one of the ID880H's that I own with this software. I can download from it all day. Uploading, however, error's out every time. I'm not sure if it is a bug in the software or what, but I would sure appreciate any and all input and help. I use Linux Mint 18.1 and CHIRP daily-20170526. If you need me to get more details to you, let me know. I'm more than happy to work together with you to get this issue resolved. I have found this problem to be isolated exclusively to the ID-880H's I own. One is in my shack and the other is in the truck. My Icom IC-91AD, Kenwood TH-F6A and Alinco DR-235MKIII ALL programmed flawlessly using this build of Chirp. Again, I would sure appreciate any and all help on this, as both of these ID-880H's are not cheap radios, and I would really like to get them back on the air as soon as humanly possible. 73, Earl KD7SJT

I have a laptop with WIN 10. First I loaded the .exe version of the daily CHIRP. When I started the program a small window was opened saying that error reporting was enabled. I closed the window and nothing more happened. I tried to run under Administrator mode, but with the same result. Then I unloaded to CHIRP software and loaded the .zip version instead. Same result. When I start the program the only thing that happens is the window with the text about eroor reporting. What am I doing wrong? Bo bo.sorensson(a)tele2.se

[chirp_users] Icom ID-880H Programming
by kd7sjt 29 May '17

29 May '17

Greetings, I have been attempting to program my Icom ID-880H with Chirp for 3 days now. I downloaded the original image file that was in the radio that had all of the repeaters that I programmed into the radio 4 years ago when using Windows. I no longer use windows and I am currently using Linux Mint 18.1 with the Daily Build of Chirp (CHIRP daily-20170526). I copied that directly off the "About" Tab. I Exported to a .CSV all of the data, and opened Libre Office Calc to edit the file with all of the new and updated frequencies for my QTH, which is Sacramento California. I then got all of the frequencies updated and saved; imported them back into Chirp and attempted to upload them back into the radio. Everything looks great until the very end when the radio says "Clone ERR" on the screen. I then cycle power and the radio clears itself and there is no data in the radio whatsoever. I did try to find if there are any FAQ's on this with no luck. My radio isn't even mentioned in the FAQ's, hi hi. I did verify that it is on the "Supported" list. I have had great success programming my other rigs with Chirp, its just this one so far that is giving me heartache. Are there any known issues with Chirp and the Icom ID-880H? By the way, the original image file that I downloaded before starting any of this, will go back into the rig with no problem. I have saved that and keep it safely guarded so I have atleast something until I can get the new stuff to go into the rig. Any help would be so much appreciated. Thank you for all the hard work you do. 73, Earl KD7SJT Sacramento, CA

[chirp_users] Offset not set on 70cm for an IC-7100
by M. George 28 May '17

28 May '17

Hi, I tried to do some research on this question... nothing found so far. I'm using chirp with an IC-7100 I just bought and the interface with chirp is working fine except for the fact that 440mhz / 70cm memories I paste in are not updating in the radio with the right Offset. They are all default ot a 600 hz offset like a 2 meter standard. I thought it might be the default offset for each band in the IC-7100 so I made sure 440 has a 5mhz offset, but still when I paste a frequency set as imported from RFinder (for example) none of the 440 offsets are set on those repeaters. I do notice that the Offset isn't a column when you download the memories from the IC-7100. This implies that you can't specifically set the Offset using chirp? Or maybe when you paste in memories to the IC-7100, the IC-7100 won't set the offset based on the receive frequency setting when the duplex is set to + or -. The duplex setting is getting set. Hopefully this isn't a RTFM or RTF-Chirp-M question! Max NG7M -- M. George

[chirp_users] MAcBook AIR and CHIRP Problems

Very frustrated, been trying to program my Kenwood TMV71 with CHIRP, using a FTDI cable from BlueMax and my new Mac Air. The computer will not download from radio. I installed multiple versions of the FTDI drivers and nothing. Even switched the cable for a new one just in case. I was able to program this radio with the same cable and software last year when I had an older MacBook (which I no longer own) Any ideas? I have a feeling maybe there is a simple step I am missing.

[chirp_users] Yaesu/Vertex Standard VX-150. Is it supported?
by Matthew Pitts 27 May '17

27 May '17

I have had one of these for a few years, but just found my charger for it and was wondering if the radio was supported by Chirp. I'm sure I'll need to program it at some point. Matthew Pitts N8OHU

[chirp_users] More Wouxum KG-UV8D (plus) Programming
by William Liporace 27 May '17

27 May '17

OK, I was even more stumped!! Building and etc... I tried a couple of Chirp versions... The UV8D & UV8D plus are DIFFERENT radios. Took a bit of searching, but there is programming software on the Wouxom site! http://wouxun.com/download.aspx?flid=1093 Hope this helps someone else!! Would have saved a lot of work!! Let me know when Chirp Supports the radio... Yea, I will watch....

[chirp_users] New Daily Build
by Build System 26 May '17

26 May '17

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-20170526 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #484 [Wade Simmons <wade(a)wades.im>] [FTM-3200D] Add support for Yaesu FTM-3200D This patch adds basic CHIRP support for programming the FTM-3200D. This radio shares most of its memory layout with the FT1D, so it has been created as a subclass of that radio. #4279

[chirp_users] Wouxum KG-UV8D (plus)
by William Liporace 25 May '17

25 May '17

I picked up a KG-UV8D(plus) at Dayton. Since I had a Baofeng UV-5R at home with the cable, all I got was the radio. I'm able to read the Baofeng, but not the Wouxum. I get the message saying "This radio driver is currently under development. There are no known issues with it, but you should proceed with caution.". Then I get a message saying "An error occurred, Radio did not respond". I think I have the latest build.

[chirp_users] MacOS daily-20170501 repeatable crash
by Steve Sergeant 25 May '17

25 May '17

I just installed chirp-daily-20170501.app to try. I am attempting to copy setups from one Leixen VV-898E radio into several others. However, a fraction of a second after the screen fills with the data from the radio, Chirp unexpectedly quits, and I'm given the opportunity to send a report to Apple. My system is: Macbook Air 11" (MacBookAir6,1) MacOS X 10.11.6 (15G1421) 4GB RAM The last line in .chirp/debug.log reads: /Users/username/Applications/chirp-daily-20170501.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/chirp/chirpw:143: PangoWarning: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text() gtk.main() I'm using the osx-pl2303-installer.pkg for my serial driver. This is currently the only radio for which I have a programming cable. Ideas?

[chirp_users] Windows 10
by Chas. Thompson 24 May '17

24 May '17

It is easy on Windows 10, the trick is to always use the same usb port that has the com# set and the right version of the driver. I have seen several people pick a random port to plug into and think that windows is changing the driver. The facat is they are changing what port they plug into. If someone is having too much trouble I can help over Teamviewer to remote help. Just email me if you are in that much need. Chas.

One way I found that has been great is to use a raspberry pi.. They now have a 7 inch display that bolts into a case with the pi and a lithium battery which means you can make it completely portable .. I’ve had not problems programming all of my radios with the pi..

If Windows does update your Prolific driver, the previous driver is still installed. All you have to do is go into Device Manager and re-select the driver version that you want to use. I keep several Prolific driver versions installed and switch between then at will for testing purposes. Jim KC9HI -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

You would think that this would not matter, but maybe Windows needs to reboot for changes such as the driver setting. Glenn I have been fighting similar problems on Win10 on my Baofeng UV-5R+.? I too rolled back the driver to 3.2.0.0 to get my "genuine" cable that I purchase from HRO to work once I upgraded to Win10.? It worked fine on Win7 and never had a problem with the latest driver but would not work on Win10 till I rolled the driver back.? I then turned off the auto driver updates for this device.? Everything worked fine after rolling the driver back. A few months later when I tried to read the radio again, it would not connect.? I checked the driver and it was still the 3.2.0.0 driver in my listing.? It took me several days till I updated the driver to the latest driver which of course did not work, but when I rolled it back again the 3.2.0.0 driver from the pick list for this device, it began to work again. Don't ask me what is going on but then set it back for auto updates.? I will now just roll the driver back every time I want to use this cable. I suggest you try to update your driver and then roll it back again to 3.2.0.0 to see if that works for you.? I know it sounds stupid but it is worth a try since it worked for me.

I?ve sent an unsubscribe request email without success and I?ve tried the website without success. Does any body have any ideas what I?m doing wrong?? Bonus points for sending it as a separate thread with s subject of something like ?Need help. Problems unsubscribing." Such an inquiry will probably get you a lot more assistance than just throwing a grenade into the mailing list. --- Jim McCorison Orcas Island, WA > On May 20, 2017, at 4:30 PM, Rich Baker <rbakedq(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Tried to unsubscribe over 10 times both on the website and by sending emails. > > On Sat, May 20, 2017 at 6:06 PM, Jim McCorison <jimmcc(a)mccorison.com <mailto:jimmcc@mccorison.com>> wrote: > Wow!

[chirp_users] Cannot read Baofeng BF-888S
by YT9TP - Pedja 21 May '17

21 May '17

I have strange issue with Windows 10, prolific serial adapter and BF-888S. It reports unable to download from radio. Driver is proper (version 3.2.0.0, update is disabled), and Chirp works fine with the same adapter and other radio (Baofeng UV-B5) reading and writing. I tried four different BF-888S and neither can be read. However, when I use the same USB adapter on my old Windows XP computer, Chirp easily reads and writes those BF-888S. Has anyone met with this problem? -- YT9TP, Pedja http://www.yt9tp.iz.rs --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

[chirp_users] FT2D
by NNN Wx 21 May '17

21 May '17

I see “bug” numbers 3325 and 3257 from last year, hoping support for Yaesu FT2D radio will work. It’s in the wish list, and doesn’t seem to need hardware for testing. I’m interested in getting chirp to work, and for some insights into how to get the serial connection to work on Macintosh OS X 10.12.5. HOW CAN I HELP (assuming this just needs effort)??

Another person looking for Chirp support for Yaesu FT2D, and specifically from Macintosh OS X. It doesn’t have to be through a USB cable; the microSD card has worked for me using the extraordinarily painful ADMS-8 software running over WINE. I have some programming and computer networking experience. Is there a way I can help, please? I see from the request list that the FT2D already has been requested and hardware is available, so I presume it’s just a matter of taking apart the data?

[chirp_users] Rfinder Latitude Error
by kd7sjt 17 May '17

17 May '17

Greetings from Sunny Sacramento California, I am trying to download my local repeater list through Chirp and RFinder. I have an Rfinder account. That isn't the problem. The problem is when I put in the latitude and longitude for Sacramento California, Chirp complains and says "invalid latitude". I have tried all the different ways I can think of to enter Latitude and Longitude in, and it doesn't help. I've even tried leaving it blank. It still says the Latitude is Invalid. I am using CHIRP daily-20170516 Please Advise.

[chirp_users] QYT KT 8900
by Richard Whittaker 16 May '17

16 May '17

Hi all. I bought a KT8900 at the beginning of the year, and my FTDI cable showed up about a week ago. Eager to get more than 2 channels programmed in (the programming interface sucks!), I plugged my cable in to the BACK of the radio like all the sites say, and.... Nothing... Fiddle, fiddle, fiddle, nothing. Different radio models, the whole works, radio would not respond. My model has what the manual calls a data terminal jack on the front. I tried it, the cable fit perfectly, and the radio responded just fine. I don't know if this is true if all KT8900s, but if yours has a front jack, it's a good idea to try it.

[chirp_users] Using public CI systems for build
by Stephen Groat 16 May '17

16 May '17

Has there been any look into using public CI systems? I know you can use Travis (Linux and OSX) and Appveyor (Windows) with git/Github/Gitlab, don't know about mercurial though. I know that there's been significant discussion about mercurial/git, but I don't know if people have taken public CI systems into account. I've made a sample repo on Github (https://github.com/stephengroat/chirp) and made Travis CI (https://travis-ci.org/stephengroat/chirp) and Appveyor ( https://ci.appveyor.com/project/stephengroat/chirp) that people can take a look at. Appveyor isn't 100%, but I'm close. These builds also trigger for Pull Requests, just make a sample PR against the repo to see. Auto deployment to Github Releases/etc. is also easy to do as well. Let me know if people are interested in this addition and thanks for all the hard work on the project! Stephen -- Stephen Groat stephen(a)egroat.com +1 (703) 798-4551 Sent from mobile

[chirp_users] Bunch of questions
by Al Jones 16 May '17

16 May '17

Let me first apologize, I don’t really know what I’m talking about. Working with a friend who has two new Retivis RT5 radios – not a major problem. One radio allow me to change information relating to a channel, the other requires that I delete the channel and re-add it – funky but workable. Other minor hassles are that one is ver 1FP3-25 and the other is ver 1FB297; since he wants both radios the same, that’s not a problem, cut and paste from one img to the other and it’s done Since I use Chirp to program my radios - and some friends – I suggested he get it on his computer. Now the fun begins. He runs UBUNTU and while I’m somewhat familiar with Linux I got stopped cold. First error: access to USB0 denied (or words to that effect) chmod 777 /dev/usb0 fixed that. Second error: Ubuntu failed to communicate with radio. 'serial' object has no attribute 'settimeout' Pretty much stopped dead, however he has two versions of python on that computer python 2.7.12 and a python 3 (sorry didn’t get the full version). If I’m reading this correctly, if he were running python3 the above wouldn’t be a problem <that’s a question>; if that’s the case, how does he tell ubuntu / chirp to use py3? … Remember, I said I don’t know what I’m talking about, can someone guide?? Thanks //al I set both his radios up with my Windows box – so for the nonce we’re okay but he’d like to put in a lot more freqs (mistake!) and it’ll be a lot easier on him to have chirp running.

I should have noted this in my earlier post – mea culpa When he downloads from the Ubuntu repository he gets Chirp Daily 20160110 – well over a year old. When he downloads the tarball from danplanet using the directions there the first two commands complete, the third gives an error – I’m thinking that he doesn’t have python-serial (and possibly python-libxml2) can some kind soul tell me how to tell him that he needs then and how / where to get them? //al
