[chirp_users] BTech UV-2501+220
by Jon G 21 Apr '16

21 Apr '16

I programmed my Btech UV-2501+220 using Chirp over the weekend. It worked GREAT, once I was careful to follow the instructions. ;-) Super job guys! Love Chirp, used it on my Yeasu FT-2900, same experience, follow directions carefully, works like a charm! *Dr. Jonathan Goodson*

[chirp_users] Chirp display after file is loaded
by S Allan Wilson 19 Apr '16

19 Apr '16

I did a brief review of the chirp_users list and did not find this subject. That does not mean that it is not there. I am in the middle of replacing my Win 10 computer. I ran chirp-daily-20160215-installer.exe. I then loaded a previous image and everything looked fine - information was shown in all columns. Did something (do not remember what) and then information "disappeared from the display. For example, Tone, DTCS Code, DTCS Rx Code, etc are not showing on the screen. If I select one row and then select properties, everything is listed. As a side note, on the computer that i am replacing, all columns still show up. I uninstalled Chirp, rebooted computer and then ran chirp-daily-20160419-installer.exe. Still having the same result.

All, I am ruining Ubuntu Xenia 16.04 and am having trouble getting the chirp daily update to work. It looks like, perhaps, Ubuntu Xenial is not supported by the chirp daily release? Thanks, Bob / KF3BY -- [image: Weather Underground PWS KPASUMME3] <http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KPASUMME3>

[chirp_users] Kenwood TK-880 supported?
by mason fann 15 Apr '16

15 Apr '16

Hello. I am looking at picking up a couple of Kenwood TK-880-1 UHF radios to use in off road vehicles. I do not see them listed on the supported list, but others that are similar, so I was wondering if anyone had any luck using CHIRP to program? thanks! Mason

[chirp_users] News about the Chirp development in the next spin.
by Pavel Milanes (CO7WT) 14 Apr '16

14 Apr '16

Hi to all, some news about the patches in the development queue and some other infos. The btech driver (for all supported radios looking similar to the btechs) has a bug about the driver not retrying the identification (aka: the driver does just one attempt) a patch for fixing that is on the queue, the driver will do 3 attempts, all due to a line not being tabulated correctly. (sorry, my fault) That must fix what some user are reporting as "not working in the first try" or "not working from a cold start" A new generation for the BTECH UV-2510+220 was discovered today, if any of you had faced a "Radio identification failed" error with this model you must try the next daily of Chirp that will contain support for this new version, all points that this is a second generation of the BTECH UV-2510+220. *Mental note for you:* If you found a BTECH like radio that is supported on Chirp but it says "Radio identification failed" you may have hit a new variant, go to the chirp forum and left us a issue with a debug.log attached, that will speed up things a lot. (search in the chirp's wiki for "how to report a bug" for instructions) Support for the Sainsonic GT-890 is waiting on the develop queue to be applied also. Some users have experimented problems working the Juentai JT-6188 *Mini* with Chirp, we realize today that there is a new spin on this radios: the Juentai JT-6188 *Plus*. If any of you has this new _Plus_ radio we are willing to work with you for get it supported on chirp, just drop me and email. This is getting the users confused as Chirp listed the JT-6188 *Mini* as a Clone of the QYT KT8900, but the new JT-6188 *Plus* is a totally different radio and is not supported by Chirp yet (this new model has 220Mhz and a fan) -- 73 Pavel CO7WT.
