I am having problems writing from chirp to my vx-2.  It downloads from the
radio ok, but when I try to write to it (real serial port com1), it says it does not
get a reply.  I usually use vx-2 commander and it works correctly
downloading and uploading. What could be wrong?

  3. Re: New stable version, power in csv (Tom Hayward)
Hey guys, a couple of questions:

The current stable version 0.3.1 was released on 7-April-2013,
7 months ago. I'd prefer to stick to released versions, but I've
seen quite a bunch of enhancements over the months described
in the daily build notices, some of which I'd like access to.

What is the thinking/ timetable for another stable release?


Second: I can readily see how to set the power level for a memory
when a .img file is loaded, and save and reload that.

But I like to build my memory images from a collection of spreadsheets,
kind of mix-n-match. Exporting to csv, it looks like the power level is lost,
and so I infer I also can't build a csv with power level info and import it.

Am I missing something, or could that be added, or is there another
workflow that would address this issue?

Thanks,

-dan




What type radio are you trying to program?

There was some talk recently of releasing 0.4.0. No time table.

We can't think of a good way to do this. Maybe you have an idea.
Here's an example:

Export from a 5W handheld set to high power. Import to a 50W mobile.
Do you set the imported channel on the mobile to low power, because
that is the closest option to 5W?

We haven't been able to solve this ambiguity, so we just don't
import/export power.
