Why would you want to? It's much better controlled by something like CQRlog or Ham Radio Deluxe. (Not specifically saying those are the best choices, just the two I'm most familiar with.) While the TS2000 has memories, a rig control application is better suited for the radio. On Tue, Feb 21, 20

You wouldn't program via CHIRP, but use a rig control program, such as HamRadioDeluxe or similar. On Mon, Aug 22, 2022 at 3:42 PM paul lewis via chirp_users < chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com> wrote: > Ok many thanks for quick response > 73 > > > Sent from Sky Yahoo Mail for iPhone >

Don't complain about JSON. It's miles better than XML. In addition, Python has libraries that can read in that JSON file and convert it to Python data structures with ease. Since CHIRP is written in Python, JSON is a good fit. On Thu, May 28, 2020 at 12:37 PM Michael Downey N2UN wrote: > Hi L

Mark, I can certainly understand why you're sticking with what you have. Makes lots of sense. However, your description doesn't sound like your radio was bricked. That version of CHIRP just didn't want to talk to it. It may work, now, but there's no reason for you to switch, since you already hav

I've used CHIRP to program two different Yaesu radios. Talked to a Yaesu tech one time. He claimed he knew of instances where Yaesu radios were "bricked" so badly they had to be sent back to Yaesu. Yet, outside of someone who stood to make money selling either RT Systems software or worked for Y

exactly The data is serial data, which is not in the audio spectrum. There's no "modem" on either end of the cable. It's straight RS-232C data as might come out of the back of an older PC. Volume has nothing to do with it, as it's either "on" or "off." On Sat, Jun 8, 2019 at 5:11 PM Nigel A. G
