Greetings,
A new daily build of CHIRP is available. This includes changes made directly to the tree yesterday, and may include additional features, bug fixes, and/or bugs. If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location:
http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-20190309
A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows:
Changes for Build #568 [Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Move http_user_agent to chirp_common and fix a stupid bug
This needs to be somewhere other than __init__.py because we overwrite that as part of the win32 build, so just put it in chirp_common.
Related to #6563
[DanClemmensen DanClemmensen@gmail.com] [ft4] correct frequency scale factor for FT-65 [#6577]
[Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Set the urllib user-agent string to something chirp-specific
Yes, this is the crazy way you have to do this for the OG urllib, but it works in our favor here to just make sure everything is using the right thing. Obviously we need to move this code to requests at some point, but since repeaterbook just broke us with the cloudflare change, this is a point fix for a current issue.
Fixes #6563

Hi all,
Although it's not on the list of changes, this build includes a new installer for Windows. It does the same thing that it used to, but it uses a more modern interface. Also, the uninstaller now removes old chirp config files. There isn't really any need to do this, but some users would get their config in a weird state and were confused about why uninstalling/re-installing wouldn't clear that up.
Anyway, if someone running windows could give this a shot and quickly report back that it indeed looks different and that everything looks good, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!

Looks good here.

I was able to access the repeaterbook with no issues this morning. Thank you so much!! I spent about 3 hours trying to program my first radio last night and was about to give up. Awesome community you have going here. Many Thanks, Mick

Hi Dan,

I used today's build to replace my currently installed CHIRP from December 2017 in my Windows 7 Home 64bit physical PC. It is definitely different and installed without a hitch.
After installing, I used Control Panel to remove CHIRP. Both the CHIRP folder in "\Program Files (x86)" and the CHIRP folder "%AppData%\Roaming" were removed.
Launching CHIRP after installing it again caused the notice about "Error reporting" to be displayed (as it should for a clean install).
Well done!

Awesome, thanks very much for the detailed report! I might consider trying to get the uninstaller to allow an option for removing the config (so you can leave it if you want) at some point. However, since you don't have to uninstall chirp to upgrade, the uninstaller really should only be needed for a full cleaning of the system and/or to diagnose issues like a corrupted config file.
Thanks Jim!

Worked fine here.
All within 2 minutes, I installed latest build, started Chirp, and downloaded from a radio.
My cable is/was COM4, but just out of curiosity, why was there a COM3 also listed? I hadn't used anything on a COM port in weeks.
Now it's 10 minutes later, I start Chirp and only COM4 is listed.
Just curious if available COM ports are cached or something like that.
