Hello First thank you for CHIRP software. I wanted to know if adding support to Baofeng BF-T18 radio is planed? I saw that some people already succeed on Reddit with CHIRP even if the radio is not listed yet, but I don't know how they did it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Baofeng/comments/1dttyqg/baofeng_bft18_programing_… Best,

Re: Users Digest, Vol 188, Issue 5

Hi All. Firstly good news, the 20240827 version of Chirp previously downloaded, has now installed with pipx without issue. (happy dance!) I took the advice bellow, and eventually (after first renaming/moving suspect folders etc "out of the way", and making sure nothing else broke.) Swamped out any remains of the older Python 3.9.x folders and data hiding in ~/.local I then removed the remnants of those experiments, again checking nothing else breaks. I next got "diverted" by other life needs, so it got forgotten about. The PC earlier today did a big OS (LMDE6) update, lots of lib's and files, and the kernel, after which of course I rebooted as it requested, no issues... I then noticed and read Jeffrey's mail below, so went and tried the pipx install again. Firstly, I'd forgotten I had uninstalled pipx earlier, so had to 'sudo apt install pipx' again, that completed, and appeared to be a clean install of pipx 1.1.0 That took "an age", from what I could tell of all the "stuff" flying up the terminal session, it did a prety good job of refreshing a lot of Python3 as well. (I have the archive of that output if anyone wants to examine it. A little over 11k of plain text.) I then did... (as a user, not using sudo) * * *dave@hp-compaq-sfdt*:*~*$ pipx install --system-site-packages ~/Downloads/chirp-20240827-py3-none-any.whl installed package*chirp* *20240827*, installed using Python 3.11.2 These apps are now globally available - chirp - chirpc - experttune done! ✨ 🌟 ✨ *dave@hp-compaq-sfdt*:*~*$ chirp And it all seems to work again. Chirp reports (using help | about) that it is :- CHIRP next-20240827 on Python 3.11.2 wxPython 4.2.0 gtk3 (phoenix) wxWidgets 3.2.2 MANY Thanks to all who contributed to the investigation. If it was something I did bad, I'd like to know please, If so, it might also be worth updating the chirp install instructions warning others not to do what I did wrong, if that was the case. Especially as there are often subtle but significant differences between different flavours of Linux. All the best etc. Dave G0WBX.
