sounds promising marco. and i'll be more than happy to run any tests you need.

Thanks, I start to see the matrix ... It will take a few days to be implemented but I probably found how to recognize the right frequency range. As of today chirp will not load correctly saved images of your uv6d but if you clone in, modify it, clone back to radio everything should work (everything but frequency ranges forced by UI).
I'll ask you to do tests some later ... stay tuned ...

items sent as requested. and thanks to this group, i was able to acquire the file using mac chirp instead of windows (via vmware) chirp.

that radio at the time I wrote the driver. I suspect that forcing radio on frequencies a little outside hisrange
don't give any bad effect but I didn't try this myself. Guy, can you please send me an image downloaded from your uv6d andthe
ranges your radio accept so that I can try to find a way todistinguish
this submodel? It would be nice to have a full range of radio given from thesellers to
play with ... having complete programming info from producers couldbe
even better ;) Dan, have you ever tried to contact wouxun headquarter? 73 de IZ3GME Marco _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com <mailto:chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com> http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users
