The TYT dongle is not a serial device, here is the syslog dump I get when I

plug the TYT dongle with radio connected.

The DMRTOOLS talk to it just fine, now to figure out how to get it to talk to the

radio from wine. Also the device does not appear in /dev unlike serial devices.

If you are having trouble getting USB serial working in wine under linux, try this post:

I do a lot of micro controller programming and debugging using serial interfaces and I have used it to get several different things working

Yes, we all use DMRTools on the MD-380 and similar, but still have to fall back

on the stinking TYT software to actually generate the code plug, sure would

like to be able to use one piece of software to do it. The TYT software runs

under wine but it cannot see the dongle as wine does not appear to be able

to handle USB devices so you have to make it a two step process as far as I

can see.

Yes we will need to find someone who can take on the Chirp work, as it is more

than just a bit trivial to add the DMR stuff, but maybe someone will emerge.

There are a lot of MD-380 people out there who would like to be able to use

Chirp for the radio maybe one is a coder and will step forward.

Why do you need it.  There is already excellent freeware software that
allows you to program them.

Good morning and happy new year all,

I was wondering if there were any plans to add functionality to chirp to
support the TYT DMR radios, such as their MD-2017 (...so last year) or
MD-380 for example?

That's all for now, 73
