Hey Marco, fellow Chirp users,

Thought I'd chime in mention that programming my FT1D with the Chirp daily went well after a few minor bumps. Thank you to Marco and everyone to make Chirp possible!

I searched for them here in the archive and didn't find any so I thought I'd mention them here:

#1 - In bringing in memories I saved as an export from a Kenwood TH-F6A, things went very well!

#2 - Few questions - Left Hand "Settings" tab

   APRS General
   - What is the "User Selected Symbol"? I already have /[ for the APRS "person" symbol
   - "My Position" says Manual Lat/Long though on the Radio says "GPS"
   - Time Source says "manual" when the radio says "Auto"

   APRS Transmit:
   - Chirp calls it "TX Beacons" is set to "interval" when the FT1D calls it Beacon TX and the Radio has it actually set to to AUTO (not SmartBeacon). This means use SmartBeacon if it's enabled in it's own menu

   APRS SmartBeacon
   - I would encourage you to make Chirp a little more verbose. Please rename from Type1 to something a little more helpful like: Type 1 - High Speed, Type 2 - Medium Speed, Type 3 - Low speed

   APRS Messages
   - It's pretty slick you can capture these messages but what if I don't want to clone them to another radio. Can you give me a checkbox to delete or not export some/all of these?

   APRS Beacons
   - It's pretty nice you can capture these messages but really not useful to clone them to another radio. Can you give me a checkbox to delete or not export some/all of these?

   "Misc" tab
   - Chirp shows "Opening message mode" as "Normal" when the radio calls it "Callsign"
   - If the mode isn't set to messase, can you grey out Chirp's "Opening Message" text field?

#3 - There are some items missing in Chirp and some are kinda important:

     Most of the FT1D "Config" menu, most of the TX/RX (setting narrow deviation, YSF defaults), portions of the Signalling menu,

Scan tab
- There are a few items missing like "Scan Width", DW Time,

     WiresX settings


#4 - Older generations of Chirp used to work fine on this machine but in this recent one, I was seeing:
--
./chirpw
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./chirpw", line 20, in <module>
    from chirp import logger
File "/home/archive/Chirp/chirp-daily-20150623/chirp/logger.py", line 27, in <module>
    import argparse
ImportError: No module named argparse
--

The solution here was to install the following from the Centos "Extras" repo:

   yum install python-argparse.noarch

#5 - Chirp seems to be a bit chatty on the STDOUT side when I'm only programming an HT here. I think some of this should go away as they don't apply, are duplicate to what displays on the GUI, etc
