[chirp_users] KK7DS Python runtime on OS x Mountain lion 10.8.2
Has anyone had any issues with installing KK7DS Python runtime as provided by the downloads page with this version of os x? mine just hangs when trying to install it and there is no information available online regarding other people trying to install. --

Yes, there have been a few reports of errors, but it works just fine for others. I'm not sure if those it doesn't work for have been able to track down a reason.
Check your app security settings. By default, 10.8 only allows you to install software from the App Store and other Apple certified developers. Chirp doesn't fall into either of those categories.

I already disabled those settings before trying to install it. I think I am out of luck anyways as I have the latest version of all the RT systems cables :( --

Using Windows and FT_Prog http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities.htm#FT_Prog you can reset the cables' USB chips to the default VID/PID. This will prevent them from being discovered by RT Systems software (unless set back to the RT Systems VID/PID), but will make them show up in Chirp on OS X with the standard VCP driver:

I've done this process with one cable. It took less than 5 minutes, works perfectly, and is completely reversible (as long as you write down the RT Systems VID/PID before overwriting it).

Dear Dan,
I ask you, when will you compile my hungarian translation into the program?
Thanks.
Best regards: Attila
Attila,
I ask you, when will you compile my hungarian translation into the program?
I'm terribly sorry! This one slipped out of my radar and I forgot. I just integrated it and it will be in tomorrow's daily build.
Thanks very much for the work you did, and again, my apologies for neglecting it!
