[chirp_users] Tone in Tone out UV-5R
by Dennis Wage 12 May '18

12 May '18

To send a PL tone only and use carrier squelch you simply put Tone in the ToneMode Column. How do you send no tone but use a tone for squelch? Dennis M. Wage 245 Corum Hill Road Castalian Springs, TN 37031 (615) 310-4242 Cell (615) 562-5128 Home http://hammondb3organ.net http://overdubs.net

[chirp_users] Puxing PX-2R difficulties
by Dave B 12 May '18

12 May '18

Who's the maintainer for the Puxing PX-2R "driver", or where to ask questions about it? I still can't get any sensible outcome with one of these radio's and Chirp, though the cable itself is fine. (Not that there is much choice of available cables!) Regards. Dave G8KBV/G0WBX

[chirp_users] No Channels Found
by onemorething＠protonmail.com 10 May '18

10 May '18

If this is a duplicate message, I apologize. Minor email issues. So, I'm new to ham radios and chirp, but I successfully used chirp to populate my Baofeng BF-F8HP with imported repeaters from RepeaterBook. But now it return the error "No Channels Found". Looking at the debug log it shows this link: http://www.repeaterbook.com/repeaters/downloads/chirp.php?func=default&stat… When using this link in a browser it indicates that I need to be logged in. But I wasn't previously logged in when it initial and repeatedly worked. Can anyone shed some light on why this stopped working? Thanks so much.

by Jeff Hughes 10 May '18

Are there any particular technical hurdles to providing Chirp support for the Kenwood TH-D74A? Just wondering, given that the radio has now been out for awhile… 73, Jeff K4YWZ

[chirp_users] Is the TYT UV8000D supported by CHIRP
by WN6WJN - - Wassim 09 May '18

09 May '18

Hello All, I’m wondering if the TYT UV8000D radio is supported by CHIRP. I found one in a box in the garage, and I have a cable and a disk (small CD) in a bag where the box was. I must have ordered it a while back and forgot about it. So, a new radio needs some programming with new frequencies and offsets. So the best way is to use CHIRP. 73 Wassim WN6WJN

[chirp_users] Using Chirp to set up FT-60 for satellite comm
by T.E. Klamberg Klamberg 08 May '18

08 May '18

Hi all, I know that satellite communications works best with two radios operating duplex, but I also learned that sat comm can be accomplished using a Yaesu FT-60. Is there a way that Chirp can be used to set up the VHF uplink and UHF downlink? Or can anyone guide me in the right direction for tutorial or instruction? Thanks! Tip N9MVX

[chirp_users] Error message trying to connect Yaesu FT7900R
by Mary Graff 06 May '18

06 May '18

I have a Yaesu FT60R that connects perfectly, but when I try to connect FT7900 I get an error message saying the USB file isn’t found, I’m trying to us the same connection that does work on the FT60r only difference is the cable plugged into the radio. Should I be able to use the software with 2 different radio’s? I can’t confirm or reject if it is the cable. I have tried to install a separate instance of Chirp but I get the same error message “could not open port /dev/cu.usbserial-RT0UYFJC: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/cu.usbserial-RT0UYFJC’ yet this is the same connection on the FT60r. I am also using this on a Mac Book high Sierra Thanks, Mary

[chirp_users] Kenwood TM-D710GA Issues
by Charles Hargrove 04 May '18

04 May '18

A recently purchased D710GA is working with the MCP6 software and the USB version of the programming cable on COM 4. When I use the MCP6 to program a few channels, it is not showing up when I use the same configuration with Chirp and tell it to download from the radio. I try to import a CSV with channels from another radio and it never uploads to the D710GA. The baud rate is set for 9600 in everything. How long should it take to upload 128 channels in live mode? I have been waiting for 1/2 hour and nothing uploads. I have tried this several times. Ideas? Thanks. -- Charles J. Hargrove - N2NOV NYC-ARECS/RACES Citywide Radio Officer/Skywarn Coord.
