Ken,

That's not how it works.

If you have a FT-270 to loan, post that availability to https://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/1099

The two duplicate requests were deleted because they were duplicates of the first request.

A post saying you are volunteering a radio for a developer to use would NOT be a duplicate, and it's one of TWO things that must happen before a developer will undertake work on it.

Short answer, until someone volunteers a loaner radio, no one will do work on this except in the unlikely occurrence that one of the volunteer programer's happens to have one himself and wants to use CHIRP with it.

Consider this a request for a promise of a loaner radio, anyone willing to do so, post a message to https://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/1099

Then wait for a volunteer to volunteer.

If you have the talents, consider becoming a volunteer programmer.

It's an unanswered request from 8 years ago, and two duplicate requests were rejected a year later.

It doesn't look like it's likely to happen - I don't see a request for a loaner radio, that a developer is going to take a look into what's involved, etc. AFAIK the FT-270 wasn't a big seller (compared to, say, the FT-60R) or the many permutations of Baofeng radios.

No need. There's already an issue for this radio:

I suspect as soon as someone loans/donates a radio to a CHIRP programmer to work on support.

Yaesu FT270 H/H

Greetings, so far I have used CHIRP with 100% success in programming many radios.
What I REALLY need is being able to program the YAESU FT270 Hand Held.
When is one of you brilliant guys going to update CHIRP with this radio?

Thanks

Radio should be ON when up or downloading.
Remove the driver and cable program, reboot PC reload driver
SHOULD correct issue. If using aftermarket cable check to see contacts are
CLEAN (*shiny) and fit TIGHTLY into the mike provisioning adapter (Mic
jack) DO NOT touch ANY buttons while programming. Worst case, prior to
programming RESET the radio to factory resets then load your amended
program.
