New Model #376
Updated by Dan Smith almost 12 years ago
Greetings, and firstly allow me to thank you Gentleman for making the software available. I apologise if I have not aimed this at the right place, and I don't know if this should be treated as a bug, or support for a new radio model. I have a Wouxun KG-UV6D, intended for 136-174Mhz and 66-88Mhz. It works well on those bands, but although I have successfully used different software to programme it, CHIRP does not like the 70Mhz setting (4 metres in the UK). By hiding the channels with those frequencies, CHIRP happily programmes in the two metre frequencies I am using. (in my case, uploading to the radio channels 27 to 44. The 70Mhz frequencies occupy channels 1 - 26) What I had done was to download from the radio when it was brand new, import a csv file from my Baofeng 5R, amend all the channels 1 to 26 to 70Mhz channels, and then attempt to upload to the radio. CHIRP did not allow this. The version I used was the daily build dated 16th November. The Baofeng UV-5R works fine, as does the KG-UV6D I own for 2m and 70cms. Happy holidays, 73 de Stan, G4EGH
