<font size="-1">Hello Marco,<br>
<br>
First off, thanks for taking the time to troubleshoot this and I'm sure
that many people will love to have FT support in Chirp!<br>

would be MUCH better having yaesu make a robust and public protocol. <br>

Yeah... I don't think that will happen. I get the impression that the
protocol that Kenwood is much more flexible but I don't know if it's
open per se. Curious, have you ever spoke to some of the other
programming tool people out there such as G4HFQ with his FT programs?<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.g4hfq.co.uk/mmohelp/mmohelp.htm">http://www.g4hfq.co.uk/mmohelp/mmohelp.htm</a> All of those are very nice
but being Windows only, they won't work for me.<br>

<blockquote cite="mid:4F23DF10.8040603@gmail.com" type="cite">This is
what I suppose even if I didn't had a look at the rest of the data
(yet), the clone operation should replicate all setting of the radio. <br>
Having a full backup of the radio is one of the reasons for which I
decided to use the clone protocol instead of peeking and poking in
memory. <br>
</blockquote>
Right.. ok. That's good. What would be SLICK is that, (if ever) that
Chirp could download three FT857 radios and save the main binary blobs
for the primary radio settings as say radio A, B, C. When programming
in back the main memories, ask the user if they want to substitute in
the correct radio's main menu settings with those memories. It seems
this would be possible considering that Chirp already knows where the
memories go w/o disturbing the main radio settings.<br>

Will send in another email directly to you.<br>
