CHIRP

Hi Terry.. what "same issue as before" are you talking about? Do you have another bug to reference?

That looks like a legit checksum error, in that the code is doing what it is supposed to, although I'm assuming it's a false positive based on your comment. If there's more context to read, let me know. I don't have or have access to one of these radios, so there's probably not much I can do to resolve it without that. We could try reaching out to the original author of that driver.

Terry,

Can you load the attached module and try to do a download with it? The module disables the checksum checking purely so you can try to get an image, save it, and attach it to this bug for me to look at. Don't use this to upload as it could push bad data into your radio, if the checksums are really failing for legit reasons.

Also, if you could tell me what kind of cable/usb adapter you're using that would be helpful. Can you download the radio using any other software, like Yaesu's using the same cable?

In the Help menu, enable Developer Mode. Restart chirp and then the File menu will have a Load Module function. Run that, choose this file. It's only active until you restart chirp.

OK that worked, a little. What it downloaded isn't exactly what is programmed into the radio. I've attached a copy of what I downloaded.

Oh jeez, I just loaded up the image and .. I see. Definitely don't upload that back to your radio. Something is very wrong there, so someone with access to a radio will definitely need to do some debug on that. Thanks for the data here though, it should provide a good start.

Cool beans. As far as I know the firmware has never been upgraded. The radio was discontinued soon after it came out. I will attempt to send a copy of the programmed file with this reply.

I'm also getting the checksum error on my 7250. Attaching debug log...
