Description

I have errors when introducing name fields like "am mode not suported" when read from the radio an am memory (air band). Also, the typical "Frecuency requires 12.50khz step". And finally (at the moment), can´t introduce symbols or spaces in the name field, only leters and numbers (without spaces). Thanks

  • Status changed from New to Feedback
  • Target version set to chirp-legacy
  • Model affected changed from icom icw32e to Icom IC-W32E
  • Platform changed from Windows to All

Does the radio support comments as long as yours, does it support spaces?
Could you please provide a debug log as described in the Wiki: "How To Report Issues"? Thanks!

Hola, de tu bitácora, creo que hablas español. Está perfectamente bien preguntar en español, tenemos Google Translate :-)
Desafortunadamente, las imágenes de los registros que envió están incompletas y no son muy útiles. Por favor, proporcione un registro de depuración en formato de texto como se describe en el Wiki: "How To Report Issues"; recopile el registro mientras produce los errores que tiene. ¡Gracias!

Hello, from your log, I believe you speak Spanish. It's perfectly ok to ask in Spanish, we have Google Translate :-)
Unfortunately the pictures of the logs you sent are incomplete and not very helpful. Please please provide a debug log in text format as described in the Wiki: "How To Report Issues"; collect the log while you are producing the errors you are having. Thanks!

Actualización: el IC-W2E no admite bandas de aire y, por lo tanto, no tiene AM.
Para el problema del paso de 12,5 kHz, proporcione un registro y también díganos la frecuencia que desea programar.
Para las letras y los espacios, debe averiguar si su radio los admite: por favor dénos ejemplos.

Update: the IC-W2E does not support airbands, and therefore it doesn't have AM.
For the 12.5 kHz step issue, please provide a log, and also tell us the frequency you want to program.
For the letters and spaces, you need to find out whether your radio supports these: please give us examples.

Los errores sobre "AM" suceden al descargar las memorias de mi equipo, por lo tanto el icom ic-w32e admite am y banda aérea, pues yo mismo las he memorizado por el teclado, y es al modificar el nombre de esas memorias en Chirp cuando aparece el error. De hecho en Chirp no figura el tipo de modulación al modificar las memorias, por lo que no entiendo bien la causa. Para el problema del paso de 12,5, el problema existe en cualquier frecuencia múltiplo de 12.5, por ejemplo 1456125 :-) -- Para el problema de los espacios y símbolos, el equipo permite introducir este tipo de caractéres mediante sus teclas, el error sólo se produce en Chirp, por lo tanto, sí los admite. Intentaré mandar un log mejor, aunque no he omitido ninguna información relevante. Gracias.

Errors about "AM" happen when downloading the memories from my computer, therefore the icom ic-w32e supports am and air band, because I myself have memorized them by the keyboard, and it is when modifying the name of those memories in Chirp when the error appears. In fact, Chirp does not show the type of modulation when modifying the memories, so I don't quite understand the cause. For the problem of the step of 12.5, the problem exists in any frequency multiple of 12.5, for example 1456125 :-) - For the problem of spaces and symbols, the equipment allows to enter this type of characters using its keys, the error only occurs in Chirp, therefore it does support them. I will try to send a better log, although I have not omitted any relevant information. Thank you.

Lo siento, pero Chirp no puede hacer que una radio haga algo para lo que no fue construida. Las especificaciones enumeradas en el manual de Icom IC-W32E son: Modos: FM (F3); la cobertura de frecuencia transmite 144-146 MHz, recibe 138-174 MHz (¡la banda aérea es 118-136 MHz!).
Además, para los nombres, necesitamos una lista de todos los caracteres admitidos. Sin embargo, el manual no describe ninguna forma de ingresar los nombres de los canales, entonces, ¿cómo se hace?
El problema del paso de 12,5 kHz parece ser un error en CHIRP, de hecho.

Sorry, but Chirp can't make a radio do what it wasn't built for. The specifications listed in the Icom IC-W32E manual are: Modes: FM (F3); frequency coverage transmit 144-146 MHz, receive 138-174 MHz (the air band is 118-136 MHz!).
Also, For the names, we need a list of all supported characters. However, the manual does not describe any way to enter channel names - so how do you do this?
The 12.5 kHz step issue seems to be a bug in CHIRP, indeed.

En mi manual figura lo siguiente (Página 24):
- Memory names
Memory channels can be programmed with names of up to 8
characters in length.
Names cannot be programmed into the call channel.
-Frequency↔name
To toggle between frequency indication and memory name
indication:
➥Push [M•N] to toggle between frequency and name indi
cations.
•“NO NAME” appears when a memory channel has not been
programmed with a name.
The following characters can be used in names:
➥0 to 9, A to Z (capitals), (space), 〈, 〉, M, +, –, “ ” /, “ ”
and =.

-Programming memory names
1 Assign the main band to the desired display with [MAIN].
2 Select the memory channel to be programmed:
➥Push [MR] to select memory mode.
➥Rotate [DIAL] or push 2 digit keys to select the memory
channel (only programmed memories can be selected).
3 Push [M•N] to select memory name indication.
4 Push [(M•N)MN•W] for 2 sec. to enter memory name writ
ing mode.
•The first character of the name
flashes.
5 Enter the desired name via the
keypad or [DIAL].
.Push the appropriate keys to input
the desired characters using the
same convention as for telephones.
•To erase a character, overwrite with
a “space” using the [(0)Symbol] key.
•To move the cursor forwards or back
wards, use the [(M•N)≈] or [(#)Ω] key.
6 Push [(VFO)CLR] to input the set
name.
•Flashing stops.
•Eight characters is the maximum for
a name.

En la página 16 : Tuning steps can be selected for each band. This transceiver
has 8 tuning steps as follows:
•5 kHz •10 kHz •12.5 kHz •15 kHz •20 kHz •25 kHz •30 kHz •50 kHz
Respecto al tema "am", cuando lees la información del equipo a Chirp, aparecen las memorias de la banda aérea, pero en ningún momento se indica en el listado si es am o fm auqnue realmente Chirp lee que la memoria está en am.
En la página 22 se puede leer "Avionics band frequencies are stored in the VHF memory
channels (U.S.A. and Asia versions only)" por lo tanto, en este aspecto se puede considerar que mi equipo está funcionando como version A, aunque el resto del manual no indica ninguna otra diferencia entre las 2 versiones en cuanto al manejo y programación.

¡Gracias, excelente información! (Resulta que miré el manual equivocado).
Con los datos que nos proporcionó, un desarrollador debería poder arreglar las cosas. Manténganse al tanto...

Thank you, excellent information! (Turns out, I looked through the wrong manual.)
With the data you gave us, a developer should be able to fix things. Stay tuned...
