Bug #10503
closedICOM IC-V80 Will not put in Tone
100%
Description
When programming the IC-V80, without any error notices, programming proceeds well. However, the written memory locations do not have tone enabled (or maybe the correct subtone frequency). Interestingly, when bringing in a hand-programmed clone image, those locations that were hand programmed do write correctly back to the radio. So, chirp is usable for cloning, but not really for programming from scratch.
The image *0403.img has all memories that originally were programmed in the radio (although the station names were added in Chirp) + 2 more put in the "spreadsheet" in chirp. When you write this image, the radio memory locations for those 2 additional are in the radio, but the tone is not turned on. In the V80, it appears that one cannot edit a memory manually, so essentially you can't work with the fact that MOST of the parameters have been inserted by CHIRP.
The image *0403.img just has memories originally put in manually, and it writes correctly.

Please indicate what tone and mode you're trying to set, and on which memories you have made those changes.

Dan, Just plain CTCSS Tone on transmit only. Memories 4,5,8,9, and 10 the tone was enabled, and the CTCSS freq. chosen, when storing the memory manually on the radio. In order to demonstrate the issue, I put in memory 11 and 12 from Chirp. When you write that image to a V80, everything is fine on memories 1-10, and appears fine on 10 and 11, except that the memory does not have the CTCSS Tone mode enabled. Ans since on a V80 you really can't edit a memory, that is a problem.
Thanks!

Okay, try the attached module with these instructions: LoadingTestModules.
You will need to delete and re-create the two bad memories. It's sufficient to just select memory 11, Edit->Cut to "clear" it and then Edit->Paste to set it to the original value.

Tested the module - works great. Thanks, Dan!
Is this fix now in daily updates?
Thank again,

Yeah, I wanted confirmation before I put it in, but after a couple days, I wasn't sure you'd circle back so I just put it in anyway. Thanks for the confirmation!
