[chirp_users] TYT TH-9800(B) 220MHz

Hi, I have the 220 version of this quad band radio. This one has 220 instead of 440. I would love to see this specific model supported. I see someone added a "bug" request #3367 but should I start a "New Model Request" instead? I just don't want to cause any trouble with making duplicate requests. Thanks! Matt - K6PC

[chirp_users] Problem retrieving freqs from RadioReference
by Marvin Barnes 07 Jul '16

07 Jul '16

Greetings, I sent the following to RadioReference: I have a Baofeg UV-5r and am using CHIRP to program it. When I go to Query from Data Source and select Radio Reference it asks me for my logon and password and a zip code. If I enter my old zip code of 78121 (La Vernia) I get a list of La Vernia frequencies. However if I enter 83301 which is where I live now I get the hour glass forever and really it is forever. How do I get the list from 83301 to come to me. I have changed my RR to show Idaho and even have select the area and specific agencies to watch. So what am I doing wrong. They replied: We aren't sure why that is occurring. Have you tried contacting CHIRP support for support of their software? Is there anyone out there who could help me please? Thanks. Marvin Barnes

[chirp_users] Icom ic-t70
by Adam_K_Collins＠graco.com 06 Jul '16

Hi, I'm looking for help with my ic-t70. For months I have been trying to get an image file into Chirp. I have confirmed correct drivers, COM ports, and no faulty cables. All I ever get is "failed to communicate with radio, unexpected response from radio." Also, I'm using Windows 10. My cables are from Valley Enterprises. I also have a cable for my Yaesu 817-ND and this works flawlessly. It seems I've eliminated all but a bad radio, or a programming issue. My radio is brand new and seems to function perfectly. Does anyone have any history with this... something to help? Thanks, ——————————————————————————— Adam Collins

[chirp_users] New Daily Build
by Build System 06 Jul '16

06 Jul '16

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-20160706 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #416 [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] [ui] Replace / with _ in default filenames. Fixes #3797. Related to #3753 The FT-857/897 driver has a slash in the model name. When used in the filename, this slash is interpreted as a directory on Linux and implodes on Windows. Neither is intended behavior. This patch substitues an underscore for a slash when generating a default filename.

[chirp_users] unable to save img files
by GEO Badger 05 Jul '16

I'm on win10. I read the radio, FT-857D, then try to save the file, no joy. Doesn't work as a "save" or "save as". I can export to csv only. --- Ciao baby, catch you on the flip side. GEO http://www.w3ab.org Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana.

Also, fix running in a test environment. Related to #3781

[chirp_users] Command-line Linux
by Mike Ray 02 Jul '16

02 Jul '16

Hello. Just joined, so, this is probably a question that has been asked before but here goes. I just bought a Baofeng UV5R and I want to be able to program it from the Linux command-line. Just uploading, downloading and editing memory channels etc. I don't really want to do this either from Windows or from the Linux GUI as I'm a blind user and it's my experience that a lot of these applications are not accessible. Particularly on Linux as unless it's written in GTK it'll be almost inevitably impossible for me to use. Mike G4XBF -- Michael A.
