I have recently purchased the FT-5DR. It's quite a nice little
package. The only drawback is the need for a Windows system to program it.
I'm a retired programmer. I might be able to help with the code needed
for the FT-5D. I used to be proficient in C, Unix, x86 assembler and
conversant

Actually,digital radios ARE supported by CHIRP. Been using CHIRP for the past
6.5 years with my FT-1D. If you look at the wiki page

Setting digital channels for C4FM is trivial (just freq & mode), and I suspect
D-Star would be straight-forward as well (again, little more than just freq &
mode), but DMR with freq, color code, time slice, and talkgroups are likely
another story.

They do. Been using CHIRP for years with setting up digital repeater info &
settings (C4FM) for my FT-1D.

Excellent, I didn't remember correctly, I'm really happy about that, now I
hope someone who has the radio is willing to volunteer the radio.
Sometimes it is easier to look at the radios supported by CHIRP and buying
one of those. I do that with printers and scanners for use under Linux.
Great ne

Jeff,
No progress can be made until a volunteer has offered to loan a radio.
That's the best answer that can be given.
Also many radios, especially those that are not extremely popular take
years if they even finally get supported at all.
Ken N2VIP says the coding process is much shorter than "
The "months and years" was about how long it can take to get a loaner/donated
radio into a developer's hands.
I think the coding process is much shorter than "years".

I think missed that part from the original issue. And, no, I have not
thought about volunteering my brand new radio for “months or years”, mostly
because *I’ve* been burned badly before by similar situations with people I
know or knew. I’m not saying the developers can’t be trusted, I’m sure they

Jeff,
The issue you posted says "equipment loan not offered".
Until someone either offers a loan to the development team, or someone buys
and gives a radio to the development team, nothing can be done.
Even when equipment is offered for loan, a developer has to be interested
