CHIRP is a free, open-source tool for programming your amateur radio. It supports a large number of manufacturers and models, as well as provides a way to interface with multiple data sources and formats.
To get started:¶
- Download CHIRP for your platform
- Check out the "How_To_Get_Help" page, and the rest of the Documentation.
- Join the mailing list!
- Be sure to review the FAQ.
In case you run into a problem with CHIRP:¶
- Before you open a new ticket, please consult the Documentation. On the right side of this web page, you will find some links to the Wiki. It contains good input for many recurring issues.
- Also, please perform a search through all open and closed issues. Maybe someone else had the same problem before, and a solution is already available.
- If your problem is about how to use CHIRP with an already supported radio, then you should ask that question in the mailing list.
- Once you have looked through the Wiki and searched all open/closed issues, you can open a new ticket (did you ask on the mailing list?). There, you may file a bug report, request a new feature, or request the implementation of a new radio. Please be detailed and follow the instructions in "How To Report Issues".
If you are a vendor and want to have your radio supported by CHIRP, please see InformationForVendors

NOTE 1: Radios marked with an asterisk (*) were supported in the legacy builds of CHIRP, but have not yet been validated in CHIRP-next. See ChirpNextBuild for details. Please open a bug to report whether or not these work for you.
NOTE 2: Not all functionality is supported on all radio models. Not all models and variants are listed here. For a more complete view of everything supported, as well as which features are supported for which model, take a look at the overview of supported features in the model_support.html file in the latest build directory.
