Bug #10329
closedChirp errors out when trying to add frequencies that are supported by the IC-80AD
100%
Description
Description: Added frequencies via radio keypad and the ICOM programming software. Radio accepted frequencies and when monitored live, traffic was heard on frequencies.
Upon downloading radio to Chirp, Some of the added frequencies (AM Broadcast band and CB band) populated properly into the Chirp Memory slots. Those frequencies also populated properly in the assigned frequency Banks.
The FM broadcast frequencies genrated an error in the memory tab.
Editing by right clicking and selecting Properties the AM Broadcast and CB frequencies downloaded into the memory tab errored out when trying to write the updated values.
See attached file BugReport Description.txt for how I reproduced and tested bug.

Hi Doug, I need an image of your radio with the channels in it in order to do anything. Can you attach one please?

Okay, well, I think I was able to reproduce what I need using the OEM software, but it would have been much easier with an image of your radio.
Attached is a module for you to test. Enable developer mode in the Help menu, restart chirp and then use File->Load Module to load this file. Then see if the mode and band limits are properly reflected.

Thank you Dan,
I did't realize that a radio image would have helped. It is attached and I apologize for not including it at the start.
The errors have gone away from memories 900 - 999. these were the FM radio frequencies.
When I try and a memory at 1.700 MHz, it works, but 1.6 frequency is out of range. Is there any way to extend the allowable range to 0.540 MHz?
The other frequency ranges are working as expected.

Ah, I didn't read the spec sheet close enough and thought I had hit the lower limit, but I see they just don't specify sensitivity down below that. A new rev to try is attached.
Also, speaking of the spec sheet, I appreciate you attaching it, but it's easy to find on the internet and it's copyrighted. You (and by association we) don't have permission to distribute that, even though they give it out free. So I'm going to delete that from this bug, just for CYA reasons.
Thanks!

Thank you, that worked very well,
And I really didn't know that about sharing PDF files. I will keep that in mind.
This looks like a closed ticket to me!

Cool, thanks, I'll push this for tomorrow. The IC-80AD and the ID-880 are "the same radio" and (until now) the driver was identical for them, which is why you're experiencing this issue. Nobody in the last ten years or so has noticed (or reported) the missing extra features that the 80 supports, but it was easy extend it.
The PDF thing is not a huge deal, it's more a problem when people attach software here, which happens. Just trying to keep outta trouble ;)
