Hi Robert,

The gating factor is usually the radio. If none of the developers has one, or has access to one, that makes it very difficult to assess what's needed in the driver, and impossible to test any code that's written. This is why you'll see an "equipment loan offered" field in the issue tracker.

Martin,

Thanks.  I am new to the users list.  I see the original request is more than two years old.  I wonder how it can get the attention of the programmers?

Agreed.  I have two IC-207H's and would loan one of them to a Chirp programmer to allow them to create the code.  I would even pay return shipping fees just to get this radio in Chirp.  It was a very popular model just a few years ago, and its successor (the IC-208H) is already available in Chirp.  It's a mystery why the 207 was overlooked. Robert Shaw K5RMS Sent from my T-Mobile 5G Device -------- Original message --------From: Chuck Hast kp4djt@gmail.com Date: 7/29/20 11:14 PM (GMT-06:00) To: "robert.m.shaw" robert.m.shaw@verizon.net, Discussion of CHIRP chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Icom IC-207H Different radio but same ideal. I have a Icom ID-5100AI have offered to loan it for someone to add the code toChirp to control the ID-5100a but so far no takers. I wouldcertainly like to be able to use chirp on my ID-5100a, andI know that there are others in the same condition. I havethe radio and will gladly ship it to someone so they can dothe coding. On Wed, Jul 29, 2020 at 5:23 PM robert.m.shaw via chirp_users chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com wrote: Yes, I have the software & cable, but it's on a 35 inch floppy and I am told it. won't run on anything newer than Win2000.  Thanks,Robert Sent from my T-Mobile 5G Device-------- Original message --------From: Martin Cooper mfncooper@gmail.com Date: 7/29/20 3:39 PM (GMT-06:00) To: Discussion of CHIRP chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Icom IC-207H The manual indicates that Icom at one time produced software for cloning this radio:===CS-207 CLONING SOFTWARE + OPC-646 CLONING CABLEProvides quick and easy programming of items, includingmemory channels and set mode contents, for local repeaterfrequencies, etc.===So, at least in theory, it's possible.Martin.KD6YAMOn Wed, Jul 29, 2020 at 12:52 PM Neil - ee ne.b@hotmail.co.uk wrote:
