Tom,
You are on the right track. You downloaded and installed the daily build of CHIRP. Now once you open the software you will come to a blank page. That is correct. at that time is where you hook up your radio, then go to the radio in the top bar, then click download from radio. Another window will pop up. Here you will put in what radio brand and model and what com port your programming cord is on. then read the radio. Always read from a radio first so CHIRP knows what radio it is working with.

Hello All,
I am trying to load CHIRP onto my desktop (Windows 7). I did check the FAQ and searched the CHIRP website before asking this question. I was looking for step by step instructions for installing CHIRP. My apologies if I overlooked it.
What I have done so far is to click on the latest daily builds link. I then downloaded chirp-daily-20150702-installer.exe which when I open it brings up a blank page though there is a RADIO tab with options. I have yet to connect my radio to the computer as I have the computer cable on order.
Do I also need to download the chirp-daily-20150702.app.zip http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/chirp-daily-20150702.app.zip file? I did download and unzip it but now what?
Thanks in advance for your help.
