Ok.. I'll play with that a bit.<br>

This might be a worthwhile popup on Chirp. Once the download is
complete, post a dialog box saying something like "Download Complete!
Did the FT857 finish it's upload? Yes | No". If yes, the the program
goes to the main menu. If No, post a text box saying "Something must
have gone wrong. Please review what memories were downloaded into
Chirp and send an email to the Chirp email list about this. DO NOT use
Chirp to upload memories to your radio if the download failed. You
risk resetting all your memories otherwise though the radio will be
fine"<br>

<pre wrap="">The clone operation has no option: it simply send the whole memory of
the radio. We change the content of the memories area but the rest of
the blob is left as is, eg this the reason for wich you have to start
with a clone.

So are you saying that if I have a set of fully altered Main menu
settings (color, power levels, CW ID, etc), I download it with Chirp, I
then factory reset my radio, and then upload from Chirp to the radio,
I'll get back all my Main menu settings?<br>

<pre wrap="">This seems to be the same behavior that Kurt KC9LDH saw with his FT-817

<pre wrap=""><!---->
Right: seems that in both case we have clone protocol errors.
I will investigate Kurt log and see if I found something interesting.

Ok... Let me know if you need anything else on my side.<br>

I don't know how to do it any other way. Is there an easier way? ;-)<br>
