[chirp_users] CHIRP on OpenBSD
by Ted Roby 06 May '16

06 May '16

Hello. I have noticed that the OpenBSD port for CHIRP is still for version 0.4.1 which was seemingly posted on 8 October 2014. This version uses an older URL of chirp.danplanet.com/download/. I have created a patch for which points it to trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/ and uses chirp-daily-20160505. Will development of CHIRP remain on chirp_daily, and no longer use build versions like 0.4.1? Can the daily builds be considered stable? If not, how can I predict the path of stable builds? Thanks for a great tool. This latest build works with my hardware perfectly. As a side note, someone else has already added patches to the OpenBSD ports tree for these devices (I am sure the following will syntactically be mangled by gmail): --- chirp/platform.py.orig Tue Apr 9 01:01:35 2013 +++ chirp/platform.py Thu Jun 12 14:14:18 2014 @@ -283,7 +283,9 @@ class UnixPlatform(Platform): os.system("firefox '%s'" % path) def list_serial_ports(self): - ports = ["/dev/ttyS*", + ports = ["/dev/cuaU*", + "/dev/cua0*", + "/dev/ttyS*", "/dev/ttyUSB*", "/dev/ttyAMA*", "/dev/cu.*",

[chirp_users] New Daily Build
by Build System 05 May '16

05 May '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-20160505 A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows: Changes for Build #399 [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] [AP510] Disable AP510 driver. In response to #3617 Only a buggy, outdated firmware version is supported by Chirp. Newer firmware revisions changed the programming protocol and are incompatible. To avoid confusion and discourage running buggy firmware, this patch disables the AP510 driver in Chirp. The code should remain, as it is a great starting point for anyone wishing to write support for the latest AP510 firmware. [Tom Hayward <tom(a)tomh.us>] [IC-T8A] Fix frequency encoding and decoding. Fixes #577 The IC-T8 stores frequencies in three bcd bytes. The last nibble of these three bytes would naturally be the least significant digit in KHz, but this leaves no way to encode frequencies divisible by 2.5 KHz. To account for this, the IC-T8 deviates from its standard bcd encoding for the final nibble. Instead of the nibble representing 1 KHz, it represents 500 Hz: 0x5 is 2.5 KHz, 0xA is 5 KHz, and so on. This patch implements this encoding and decoding in Chirp.

[chirp_users] Mac driver issues SCU-18
by Lee Reynolds 03 May '16

03 May '16

Hi, I've got a Macbook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015) and a Yaesu SCU-18 cable. My version of OS X is 10.11.5 Beta 3, but I've had issues with 10.11.4 on up through Beta 3. I've installed the Python Runtime from KK7DS, and chirp runs, but I can't select the driver for my cable. I've tried a few drivers, but nothing seems to map to the /dev/cu.* I've tried the PL-2303HX Rev D Chipset <http://prolificusa.com/portfolio/pl2303hx-rev-d-usb-to-serial-bridge-contro…> driver, and the FTDIUSBSerialDriver_v2_3.dmg driver, but neither seem to work.. Are there other drivers/sources I can try? Thanks! Lee

[chirp_users] Nothing under the settings tab
by Steve 03 May '16

My new UV-5R, when downloaded from the radio, will not show anything under the settings tab. I am getting this error message: The upload was stopped because the firmware version of the image (N5R2407BFB297 ) does not match that of the radio ( Ver BFB229 ). Any ideas??
