Does anyone know if Chirp will write icf files? If it will then my ID-5100 issue may be solved.

[chirp_users] CHIRP will not start on my WIN 10 laptop
by Bo Sörensson 29 May '17

29 May '17

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 28 May '17

28 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
by John Kobeck 28 May '17

28 May '17

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. I believe with the Kenwood TMV71 you simply plug the cable in the fort and go > On May 27, 2017, at 3:00 PM, chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com wrote: > > Send chirp_users mailing list submissions to > chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > chirp_users-request(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > chirp_users-owner(a)intrepid.danplanet.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of chirp_users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

[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

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!!

[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.
