Hi I wonder why my Retevis H-777 Radios don't get connected to chirp. They do under Win10 (2 of them need a lot of tries even under win) but in Ubuntu/Linux they don't connect at all. brgds ME

[chirp_users] With Windows 10, how do you change the driver for a prolific cable?
by J. David Aten 29 Dec '21

29 Dec '21

I recently tried to roll back the driver for a Prolific cable, but couldn't get my version of Windows 10 to allow this. The tab for "roll back driver" is grayed out. I tried to use the update driver, which I had downloaded the correct driver from Miklor, to load in. It kept saying that I had the best driver. Is there a workaround for this, now? I finally found my FTDI cable, and then didn't have any problems. But, I do have a couple of Prolific cables (no doubt fake), so, I would like to be able to use them. Thanks, if anyone has a solution.

I'm trying import a csv file into a chirp IMG file. It is one I exported, modified and now trying to import. Where have I gone wrong?. I exported the IMG from my radio beforehand. Dan

[chirp_users] Big Sur, Icom-2820H, upload clone hang
by Channing Fell 27 Dec '21

27 Dec '21

Setup: PC: MACBook Pro, late 2014, running Big Sur , USB- OPC-478p cable Radio: Icom IC-2820H Sequence: - Install and start CHIRP - install clone cable USB-478p to MacBook, recognized with no errors - Install device end of same clone cable, USB-478p to Icom Speaker1 - from CHIRP, download Radio (clone) successful - UPLOAD Radio hangs with the progress bar around 95-98% complete - CHIRP UPLOAD errors out (completion code not received from Radio) - Remove the clone cable from Icom and it displays “CLONE ERROR” The process for both download and upload to the IC-2820H works using Windows OS. I have read a few posts, did some searches on this CHIRP website.. as well as a lot of time on the App support sites… there isn’t much if anything about how Apple changes USB and other function… but haven’t figured it out. Any hints about where I should/could look to fix the MAC issue? Thanks for reading… Respectfully submitted, Deacon Channing Fell

Re: [chirp_users] Additional Choices in Tone Mode Column

Thanks for your reply. The MemoryEditorColumns article in Wiki does not provide any info on the DTCS-R and TONE-R choices under the Tone Mode column when opening a NEW under the FILE tab.. Is there an updated version of the MemoryEditorColumns article? I understand the choices are different for each radio I would like to be familiar with all the choices provided when opening a NEW from the FILE tab. Thanks. ---------- Original Message ---------- From: "D.J.J. Ring, Jr." <n1ea(a)arrl.net> To: Discussion of CHIRP <chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Additional Choices in Tone Mode Column Date: Mon, 27 Dec 2021 13:27:26 -0500 Your download from the radio has only the tone modes supported by the radio. CHIRP supports many more. See https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/MemoryEditorColumns You might sit down and read the wiki. It's excellent. 73 DR N1EA On Mon, Dec 27, 2021 at 1:02 PM thespurlocks(a)juno.com <thespurlocks(a)juno.com> wrote: > > What do the choices DTCS-R and TONE-R do when selected in the Tone Mode column?

What do the choices DTCS-R and TONE-R do when selected in the Tone Mode column? I get the additional choices in the Tone Mode column when I open a NEW from the File tab. I do not get the additional choices when I Download from Radio from a UV5R BoaFeng.

This was generating and error conditions that was preventing the Settings tabs from being displayed. This patch detects an unpopulated sub-VFO setting and populates the setting with the appropriate low band limit frequency. fixes #9617
