Re: [chirp_users] Chirp incorrectly defaults to Narrow band on 220 mhz amateur band.
by Jardy Dawson 06 Feb '17

You are incorrect. Ham bands are wide band, 25 hz width compared to 12.5 wide narrow band for public safety/business use. We are not talking audio width, but frequency band width.

[chirp_users] A digitized audio link called Chirp
by David Ranch 06 Feb '17

06 Feb '17

Just a heads up but I just saw this on the Fldigi group. No doubt, naming a product is difficult and an available name can be hard but these guys obviously didn't even try. A Google search for "chip" yields four of the top ten listings. --David KI6ZHD -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [linuxham] A digitized audio link called Chirp Date: Sat, 4 Feb 2017 13:23:13 -0500 From: Reply-To: linuxham(a)groups.io To: linuxham(a)groups.io Not to confuse anyone but in addition to the free rig control app "Chirp" here now comes a digital audio link by the same name. https://www.newark.com/chirp-io-interview-internet-of-sound?COM=referral-ha… This looks interesting and it triggered the wanna-be Ham-MacGuyver in me. What if you could set any rig into vox mode and via mic & speaker hands-free QSO digi-mode from your Smartphone? (Or CW via Smartphone of Chirp-connected keyboard, or text-to-voice from the same?) What if you wanted to use the PA system in a park, stadium, function hall, EOC, field command post, Field Day, Hamfest, etc. to deliver digitized info to Smartphones (or other properly equipped devices with a microphone) - without the hassle of Bluetooth or Wifi linking?

[chirp_users] Has anyone successfully programmed a Kenwood TM-D700 with Chirp?
by Rich Holtman 06 Feb '17

06 Feb '17

1) Has anyone successfully programmed a Kenwood TM-D700 with Chirp? 2) What cable did you use? 3) Does that cable connect to the 9-pin RS-232 on the radio, or the 6-pin mini DIN connector? Thank you, Rich Holtman KD9ANU

[chirp_users] Continued Trouble with Baofeng
by donieallen1971＠yahoo.com 06 Feb '17

06 Feb '17

I appreciate the advice from evetyone. I have tried making the programming changes to my UV-5RA. Unfortunately for me, I still have not been able to pick up anything. First, I setup channel 1 with the following settings for my local First Responders. Freq = 453.575000Tone Mode = TotalTone = 233.6Mode = NFM Second, I tried to setup channel 2 to our local repeater freq., which is 224.8000 with a "-" setting. But I receive the following error message: Error settingmemory: Frequency 224.800000 is out of supported range.Tx Freq 223.200000 is out of supported range As I have stated, I am new to programming scanners and I'm not sure what to do from here.

Many ideas here that could solve your problem. Also, check to see if you enabled a tone squelch option that would not pass the audio unless the proper tone/code is set. For just plain reception, you would not need this..

Re: [chirp_users] Older Yaesu Radios
by Kenneth Strom VA3KRS 04 Feb '17

04 Feb '17

Just to let everyone know, if you do find an older Yaesu without the FTS-17A CTCSS Tone Board (long unavailable) they are being remanufactured in China, for around $25.00 USD shipped. The same one used in Mobiles and HTs, it was an (expensive) option as few Repeaters used it at the time 20 years ago, most having just switched over from AM to FM Mode and most Ham radios were converted single-channel Crystal radios. Rather expensive to change Channels at around $30.00/pair. No 1.000-channel radios existed then...

Re: [chirp_users] Yaesu FT-1802M Mobile Radio
by Kenneth Strom VA3KRS 04 Feb '17

04 Feb '17

Regarding the Yaesu FT-1802M, the "M" merely stands for Mobile radio. There may be a difference in the Euro version to the North American one, although usually there is a "E" after the Model name (for European Version). The "A" versions are for the Americas as we have a wider VHF section, same as UHF. I own a FT-3000M which is slightly different in specifications, both being High-Power VHF radios, yours is 50W, mine 65W output. The Euro versions will only TX 144-146 MHz, ours to 148 MHz, and the wide-band modification is quite simple. If you live out in the Countryside, the higher TX output you will really appreciate, just make sure your antenna will handle it and use a 5/8, and please due to the power wire it directly to your Battery or PS. The Official Yaesu Website has all the details on this Radio.
