This is a long bump i guess, But i did manage to tweak the KT7900D driver to work with the CRT279 so far most of the functions work.
All except the frequency range adjustment but that should be of no issue.
Meaning i can change all settings read from the radio write to it and import channels.

I am trying to write a driver to be put in the CRT section, But the process is weird for me as chirp development uses ubuntu 14 and extremely old python.

Hey Jim,

What i did for personal programming is change line 247 from +KT7900D_fp = "VC4004"+ to +KT7900D_fp = "VC5302"+ as the radio already identifies as KT7900D.
I already added a new section to the btech driver.
I am in the process of using the btech driver as template to add it to the CRT section.

Honestly it should not be too much work to implement this in next versions would it?

Tnx for your response

Not much work at all. I did what I did in under 5 minutes and should work to download from and upload to your radio using Vendor: QYT / Model: KT7900D or Vendor: CRT / Model: CRT-279UV.

Load the test Driver Module that I provided and verify that it works. I can't test it here because I don't have any mobile radios of the QYT KT7900D quad-band variety.
