> That's cool, a VX-6 would be good to knock off the list, and I think it's likely to "just work" because it shares a lot in common with the other radios in that vintage (VX-7, VX-8, etc). That said, I haven't actually tested those since 2019, so I should re-do that just to be sure. I'll try to do that today, but will look forward to your report about the VX-6.<br>
<br>
I confirmed that my VX-7 and VX-8DR radios are still good, so I suspect your VX-6 will be no problem.<br>
<br>
Also, this morning I scraped some data out of our error reports and added a "Market Share" column to the testing matrix, which gives us an idea of which radios are the most important to get tested.<br>
<br>
<a href="https://github.com/kk7ds/chirp/blob/py3/tests/Python3_Driver_Testing.md" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/kk7ds/chirp/blob/py3/tests/Python3_Driver_Testing.md</a><br>
<br>
Luckily, we've got all the major ones already, and even though only 53% of models have been tested as working, that represents 77% of the share of chirp users, which is pretty good. Interestingly, the VX-6 is oddly popular amongst its siblings:<br>
<br>
Yaesu_VX-3 0.08%<br>
Yaesu_VX-5 0.07%<br>
Yaesu_VX-6 0.16%<br>
Yaesu_VX-7 0.09%<br>
Yaesu_VX-8DR 0.03%<br>
<br>
Still tiny compared to the almighty UV-5R, but going strong compared to peers.<br>
<br>
I'm also thinking of marking all the Kenwood live radios as implied tested, as these are almost all the same code, and being string-based, pretty solid. That will increase our numbers a bit more. After the initial conversion, I've not encountered any problems with any of those that I've tried.<br>
<br>
I think starting to push users to the newer builds (especially if they're on platforms like Linux and MacOS that desperately need a modern platform) when 80% of them will be supported is pretty reasonable.<br>

However, many of the others will require work I think.<br>

Great, thanks! I just took a look and that driver and it will definitely need some love to make it happy, but it seems quite simple and thus should be fairly straightforward. There are lots of recent examples of conversions in the tree to look at. Here are a few:<br>

Hi, to all<br>
<br>
Not much free time on this side, but catching up.<br>
<br>
Radios at hand that I will check and the family that will cover:<br>
<br>
* Feidaxin FD-268A: all supported Feidaxin listed<br>
* Baofeng BF-T1<br>
* Vertex Standard FTL-1011 & 2011: all supported Vertex Standard FTL-****<br>
<br>
Also posted a request for help on the local ham group for the Kenwoods <br>
260 family, That's a very common radio family here, once tested that <br>
will clear all this models:<br>
<br>
* TK-260, TK-270, TK-272, TK-278, TK-360, TK-370, TK-372 & TK-378<br>
<br>
Will let you now!<br>

It feels very native and will have universal2 intel/arm support the next time I roll it. Testing the bundled builds is important for sure, but getting a development environment running is also easier. You pretty much just need a recent python3 (3.10 recommended) and:<br>

I think the light is visible at the end of the tunnel at this point, so I'd really like to make 2023 the year we freeze work on the current py2 branch and get people moving to the new stuff. I'd like to be able to start getting "power users" testing the new builds early next year, which hopefully will help fill out the model testing edges.<br>

I happen to have a BF-T1 here. Since you have limited time available,<br>
I can go ahead and do that one if it is OK with you?<br>

Hi Jim<br>
<br>
Go ahead!<br>
<br>
I have to pick up the radios at my old house (the entire shack is in <br>
storage boxes, radios, tools, interfaces, etc) so you will make it <br>
faster than me.<br>
<br>
Cheers, Pavel.<br>
