Jeff,
The issue you posted says "equipment loan not offered".
Until someone either offers a loan to the development team, or someone buys and gives a radio to the development team, nothing can be done.
Even when equipment is offered for loan, a developer has to be interested in the project to volunteer. This can take months or even years.
I have a feeling that an offer to buy the radio for a developer would get them VERY interested in supporting development for this radio.
Remember this is a totally community effort that is given away to users without charge.
Have you thought about volunteering the loan of your radio?
Best wishes,

I know it's been a while (over 3 months since the Yaesu FT-5D radio has be released and just as long as the info/issue (#9365) about using CHIRP with the FT-5D (
https://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/9365) dated 09/11/2021. I also do not see the radio listed on the CHIRP site. Since then RT Systems and Yaesu both have applications to program the FT-5D. I've used the Yaesu ADMS14 through my Win10 VM and in my honest opinion it's complete garbage. It's the first Yaesu app that I've used to program a radio. CHIRP is by far THE best that I've used, AND userit works on my Mac.
Has any progress been made to have CHIRP be able to program the FT-5D? Even if it's just writing to a micro SD card that could be read by the radio it would be great.
Thanks & 73.
Jeff
