[chirp_users] FT-60R can't upload to radio

2022-01-31 Thread Matt Foster
I'm having an issue with CHIRP and my Yaesu FT-60R. I can download from the
radio, but can't upload. A bit of Googling showed me that this is not an
uncommon issue. Following some of the advice I found on there, I picked up
an FTDI USB-Serial adapter (I was using a Prolific at first), but the issue
persists. I keep getting the "Radio did not respond" error when I try to
upload.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Interesting...I just tried FT-60 Commander, and at first the radio also did
not respond. Then I tried its "Alternate Write Mode" and it worked! I don't
know what this mode is doing, as I can't find the source code for Commander
online anywhere. I'm guessing it's doing something with either flow control
or the DSR/DTR lines, but I don't know for sure.

Re: [chirp_users] FT-60 upload erroor

2022-05-22 Thread Matt Foster
I too found it to be very picky about the cable. I tried two from Amazon
with different chips in each, and neither worked with CHIRP. I was able to
get one to work with FT-60 Commander by using its “Alternate Cable
Config”…or something like that. I don’t recall the exact menu choice.

[chirp_users] chirp-next - Row selection on banks tab

2023-01-11 Thread Matt Foster
I was just doing some work on my image file for a Yaesu FT-60R. I was
assigning memories to banks, and I somehow got multiple rows in the table
highlighted. I think I may have clicked and dragged slightly to cause this.

I can not un-highlight the rows, nor do I see the point of highlighting
rows in the banks table. If there is not anything useful to be done after
selecting multiple rows of this table, would it be possible to just disable
the row selection there?

I have a 7250, so if you get YSF support for that radio, I’d be happy to
test it!

[chirp_users] Install experience on Linux Mint 21.2

2023-11-30 Thread Matt Foster
I had been using Chirp on Windows 11 without issue, but I decided I wanted
to give it a shot on my Mint 21.2 (Victoria) laptop. The following is what
I noted. FWIW...I consider myself to be pretty well-versed in
Linux, although my experience with Ubuntu-based distros is lesser and more
recent.

- Installed the dependencies with 'apt install' with no issue.

- "managed flag" vs "no managed flag"...I wasn't sure what this meant, and
there isn't any explanation other than Ubuntu and Debian version numbers.
It looks like maybe it has something to do with Python virtual
environments. I had to dig around a little to find that my Mint version is
based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, so NO "managed flag". I feel like other, less
experienced, Linux users might struggle a bit to figure this out.

- I had downloaded the latest .whl file into ~/Downloads, so...'pip install
Downloads/chirp-blah.whl'. This worked fine, and chirp launches out of
~/.local./bin.

- A step could be saved if pip were just pointed to the whl file online.
Would it be possible to have something like 'chirp-latest.whl' that links
to the latest version?

Overall, it was pretty smooth and I completed the steps in about 10
minutes, including figuring out the Mint vs Ubuntu version thing, although
I have not yet had Chirp communicate with a radio! ;-)
