Hi, I have recently updated to El Capitan and am no having problems trying to access radioreference.com from Chirp. I reinstalled KK7DS Python runtime for Mac OSX and then updated CHIRP to daily-20160926. The error I get is:

"Suds library required for RadioReference.com import. Try installing your distribution's python-suds package."

I solved the problem... The list suggestions & web info didn't work, but helped with clues and likely distracted me to use my python.

I ended up changing chirp to use my MacPorts python. I did a clean install on a different [Mavericks] system to eliminate any potential left over collateral. I then applied the same changes to my El Capitan MacBook to verify...

For those the feel adventurous: 1) edit chirp (/Applications/Chirp.app/Contents/MacOS/chirp): ## PYTHON=/opt/kk7ds//Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python

PYTHON=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python

you may need to adjust the path to match your python & chirp installation.

2) If chirp was previously installed, otherwise skip: a) rename or delete /opt/kk7ds b) delete soft link /Applications/Chirp.app/Contents/MacOS/../CHIRP 3) install any missing python modules (example for MacPorts): sudo port install py-serial py27-pygtk py-suds

Run will open X Windows (XQuartz)...
