Error code using CHIRP with Explorer QRZ-1
by realtor＠pioneernet.net 29 May '24

29 May '24

I am trying to program my QRZ-1 using Chirp s/w and when attempting to read data from the radio, I am getting an "Error reading from radio: not the amount of data we want." (I can't use the s/w that should come with the radio because GigaParts did not send that to me yet.) Any suggestions? Rich Medved RichM(a)Duck.com

Best substitute model to use in CHIRP for Baofeng AR-5RM
by Bob Meyer 27 May '24

27 May '24

I just bought a Baofeng AR-5RM from Amazon. (... less than $30, of course). It's an 8 watt (more or less), 999 channel, tri-band (2m, 1.25m, 70cm) radio with AM air band receive capability. It seems to do all those things, but it's not currently support by CHIRP. I was wondering whether anyone could suggest an alternative in CHIRP. The Amazon page for the radio shows an image showing that it can be programmed by telling CHIRP it's a UV-17Pro. Well, that kind-a sort-a works, but doesn't handle the radio's full capabilities. First off, it doesn't recognize that there are three power levels. Also, I can enter and store air band AM frequencies on the radio itself, but I can't add nor even edit those entries when read from the radio. Just looking for a suggestion. Thanks! Oh, by the way, the radio didn't even come with the correct manual. The manual is for the "BF-5RH SERIES", and it makes no mention of the 1.25m capability, AM air band receive, or higher power.

how to open/use older version
by Scoobie D 27 May '24

27 May '24

I have the Chirp software on my old MacBook Pro (cira 2009) Running version 10.10.5. I can no longer open it on that laptop. I was trying to load each profile to my Baofeg UV-5R to move them to my newer MacBook Pro., but I'm not able to open Chirp on my older model. Am I out of luck or is there some way to open the older chirp version?

Hi there, Chirp-next worked for me yesterday but today it doesn't. It will not list my Baofeng USB cable CH341. Am I being hacked? What should I do? Floppyjoe
