[chirp_users] Sainsonic GT-890 explicit remove from the UI in Chirp, and clones to the UI
by Pavel Milanes (CO7WT) 12 May '16

12 May '16

Hi to all. Please note that after approval of the new patch sent to the devel queue, next versions of Chirp will not have the Sainsonic GT-890 listed in the Vendor/Model listing on the chirp interface. That's just for a unknown time frame, keep reading. This change obey to the fact that the two variants of the Sainsonic GT-890 known to us are a perfect clones of two variants of the QYT KT8900, so to read/write to the Sainsonic GT-890 you must select the QYT KT8900 instead, the wiki page on the Chirp's site was updated today to reflect this change. Having a clone listed side by side with a reference radio put some challenges to the validating scripts in the devel stages and from the developers point of view & programming paradigms it's wrong. We are working on a solution for that, it will bring clones to visibility on the UI in a user friendly way; a few links for the curious: http://intrepid.danplanet.com/pipermail/chirp_devel/2016-April/003955.html http://intrepid.danplanet.com/pipermail/chirp_devel/2016-April/003958.html PS: After we test this new change for the clones to show in the UI for the BTECH's and family; that trick can be expanded to other families like the Baofeng UV-5R with it's many clones... 73 Pavel CO7WT

Pavel, Thank you for your replies. I will upload the log files in a few days. I will have to build a 32-bit Windows system to run the capture on. Unless you are aware of a 64-bit replacement for portmon?

Pavel, I tried the BTECH.py file you posted to the KT8900 group and received the same error. I am going to see if I can find a 32bit system around here to run portmon on and do a data capture. May be a day or two. I have also tried it both in frequency mode and in channel mode, as the Sainsonic gt-890, Btech uv-2501, and as the Waccom Mini-8900, as well as the QYT KT8900 with the exact same results. Attached is the debug.log from chirp Frank Ketterman f.ketterman(a)mail.com <mailto:fnk@softhome.net> www.survivalblog.net <http://www.survivalblog.net> AC0XV Molon Labe!

[chirp_users] Unable to read from QYT KT-8900
by F.Ketterman 10 May '16

10 May '16

I have not been able to successfully read from my QYT KT-8900 radio I consistently receive the following message 'An error has occurred' 'Radio identification failed.' Note that this is with two different cables (one supplied with radio requiring older Prolific driver, and the other a brand new BTECH cable that I used without error to program my BTECH UV-2501+220). I am using the latest version of CHIRP (daily-20160507) build on a Windows 10 x64 system.
