[chirp_users] Update to Mac Import of Stock Freq Issue
by Ross Young 04 Dec '15

04 Dec '15

Hi Guys, There has a been a long standing issue which should be an easy fix. That is importing the stock freqs on a mac NOAA Weather Alert.csv US Calling Frequencies.csv US FRS and GMRS Channels.csv US MURS Channels.csv http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/2259 I know the current work around is to go to the following site and do a copy paste job, but I was hoping to have it just added into the menu like you do for linux. http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/repository/show/stock_configs Please help with this issue as it really would be helpful for lots of Hams who run a Mac. Thank you, Ross Young KM4HIL

[chirp_users] Icom ID-880H
by Drew from Zhrodague 02 Dec '15

I'm using OSX, and having trouble withe my Icom ID-880H. I am able to download from the radio, but if I upload the same data I just downloaded from the radio, I get a CL ERR message, and it fails. The data is straight out of the radio, and back into the radio. Here's some debugging information - Any suggestions? [2015-12-02 12:48:16,960] chirp.drivers.icf - DEBUG: Waiting for clone result...

i once had a vx7-r and would get clone errors.yeasu's are kinda hard to program.with my vx7-r there was a key on the key pad that had to be pushed just before you pushed the enter key on your computer to get your radio programmed. i do not remember which key on the radio needs to be pushed before programming the radio Leonard

[chirp_users] TYT programing software
by Rick Hanzlik 01 Dec '15

01 Dec '15

I just purchased a TYT ThUV3R with the idea of using it for 220. It seems that the only way to activate the 220MHZ functions is to program it using the manufactures software. I down loaded verion 3.2.0.0 of the prolific driver and the manufactures software but when I try to access the radio, I will see the RW--COM displayed on the radio and I get a message the tells me to check the cables. However, I can program the radio using the latest daily CHIRP software without any problem, but it will not program the 220MHZ range. I realize this is the chirp group but I'm hoping someone can give me a suggestion as to how to make this all work. Rick Hanzlik N7NGK Sandy, Ut

[chirp_users] S code
by Gary Runningbear 27 Nov '15

27 Nov '15

In WV 82 in menu 17 referring to the S code . it can be set to numbers 1 through 15 groups. The manual says this can only be set in chirp but when I looked there I could find nothing labeled s code. The only thing I could find numbered 1 through 15 is the Push to Talk ID. Are these related? Can someone please help me clarify this?

[chirp_users] Feidaxin radios support on sight
by M.Sc. Pavel Milanes Costa 27 Nov '15

27 Nov '15

Hi to all, There is anyone in the list with any of this Feidaxin radios? FD-160A FD-450A FD-460A Or just can borrow one for a couple of hours? I just submitted a patch to the developer list with support for the FD-268A/B and FD-288A/B that is waiting for review and approval. But I noticed with some hacks that the mentioned radios (FD-160A, FD-450A, FD-460A) have a very high chance of being supported with just cosmetics changes to the driver. If you have one of this radios and want chirp's support for it, please contact me for instructions on how to help me on this. Thanks in advance, CO7WT.
