[chirp_users] Baofeng data to Yaesu
Hi, I am trying to move Baofeng data to a Yaesu ft-7900R. If I load the Baofeng data into Chirp It selects Baofeng in the upload box and I cannot change it as it is grayed out. Any help anyone can provide will be appreciated.
Thanks, Joe - K5WAS
Have you tried selecting (highlighting) all of the data in all the fields, all the lines, then doing a copy and paste into a blank data form STARTED UP as for the destination radio ?
A quick way to select ALL data in the source data report is to select one line, then type [ctrl]-a (shortcut to select all), then type [ctrl]-c to copy, exit chirp, start it again and read from the destination rig, select one row, do [ctrl]-a again to select all, then paste the copied content from the process before into this ALL selected area by typing [ctrl]-v
You can also pick-n-choose individual records (rows) to transfer by holding the [ctrl] key and clicking the mouse button.
Not sure if this will work for you, but I've used this process to copy from a Baofeng UV82 to a UV5R, and it worked fine.
That will give you the basic frequently data, you'll still need to do any 'settings' directly from the second page

You can have multiple radios connected at the same time, they'll be just in separate tabs. I'd suggest to load each radio in a separate tab and then copy and paste the relevant data between them. Direct export won't work because you're most likely trying to transfer also some model-specific settings.

Copy and paste between tabs is certainly works and is convenient, but importing the *.img radio into a tab for the destination radio is more thorough.

Coping and then pasting is a much safer way to get information on to a Baofeng.
If you just upload file from another radio you stand a good chance of “semi bricking" the the uploaded radio. (I say “semi bricking”, because you can get the radio back working, but it has taken me a few hours with each radio.)
(I have programed over 120 radios for club members, and other, and have never had a problem by coping and then pasting. Peter ----- Peter J. McClosky, N7IY Eugene, Oregon pmcclosky@earthlink.net n7iy@arrl.net http://home.earthlink.net/~pmcclosky/

You download from the Yaesu and them import the CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) file from the UV-5R. I use my UV-5R as my "master" for all of my other CHIRP compatible radios.
