[chirp_users] FT-857D with extended transmit
Hi friends,
I am signing up for USAF MARS today, and I've made the extended transmit range modification to my Yaesu FT-857D. Now CHIRP no longer works with the radio, reporting an error message about an unexpected value in the first block. (I apologize for not having copied the exact error message -- I can get that if it would be helpful.)
Has anybody achieved success using CHIRP with a MARS-modded FT-857D? If so, what is the trick to this?
David / K7DB
Did you read the radio first? Use chirp on 897 & 857 with MARS mod no problem. Jack W4GRJ / AFA4DG

Hi Jack,
Thank you very much for writing back. Can you please confirm that you are using the *FT-857D*?
