Website Update - List of Supported Radios
Added by Ken Hansen about 1 year ago.
Updated about 1 year ago.
Model affected:
Radioddity QB25
I read the instructions above:
Description
I pulled a Radioddity QB25 radio out of my closet and wanted to update the programming on it, so I downloaded recent CHIRP Next, worked through the PL2303TA not supported on Win 11 issue (used Version 1.12.0 of Prolific driver), and successfully read/wrote to radio.
The issue is that while the executable had a menu item for the QB25 radio under Radioddity, the CHIRP website does not list the radio.
I repeat, the software directly supports it, the issue is to update the website to reflect the radios the software actually supports - I suspect the QB25 isn't the only supported radio not listed.
Thanks so much, really appreciate everyones efforts supporting these radios!
Ken, N2VIP

Unless I'm missing it, you need to tell us which model you selected that worked. We don't just randomly say things are supported. If another driver works because the radio is a clone that's cool, but we need to account for it by saying what it is a clone of.

Yes, you missed it.
The software supports the Radioddity QB25.
To work with the Radioddity QB25 you simply choose Radioddity as brand and QB25 as the model.
The software properly supports the Radioddity QB25 right now (CHIRP Next, didn't check CHIRP Legacy).
The issue is that the CHIRP website does not list the Radioddity QB25 as a supported radio.
The fix is to update the website to more accurately reflect the radio models that are currently supported by the software.
I speculated that there are other supported radios that are not included on the website, but that's just a guess...
- Status changed from Feedback to Not a bug
The website (radio list) is generated automatically from the code every night there is a build. I did find a bug in the script that does that which would cause some models to be excluded, which I've fixed. So the next time there's a build it will get updated.
Marking this as not a bug since it's not a problem with chirp itself.
