Mike

Would also like to say that I do all the things that you wrote but the 
program usually ends up "Not Responding" in the areas that I have problems 
with. It is giving me the Bank names and where they are located in the A 
side after I have the program read the radio. However the B side which has 
less than 70 entries will not return any bank names or where they are 
located after reading the radio no matter how long I wait. I have waited for 
thirty minutes and when I click on the program again gives me "Not 
Responding."
The biggest concern is that it will not read the radio if it turned on when 
I ask it to read the radio it puts ERROR in all lines. So if I turn it off 
and have the chirp read the radio it will give me at least two or three 
errors by the time I get the radio turned on and then those are filled in by 
the time  when it is finished.
The file I sent you was one that had been loaded from the radio and then I 
put in the data that I wanted.
When Chirp is finished with reading the radio I then have tried to import 
the data file I sent you. It comes up with the dialog box with the file and 
I click okay but it just sits there and eventually goes into "Not 
Responding" again.

I also wanted to comment on the length of time that it takes to read the 
radio. It does not take that long for it to read my radio. Maybe 30 minutes 
as the longest time. Usually shorter.

Oh and what ever you edit could you tell me what you edited so that I can do 
the same and then I will stop bothering everyone. (I know you all probably 
cringe when you see an e-mail from me.

Thanks For You Help
James

Hi James,

I inserted some comments below.

Please send me your data file, I'll try it in my radio when I get home from 
church.

Thanks,
Mike, N0SO

I always read from the radio first. The IC-92 is a "live" radio - any 
changes you make in chirp are immediately sent to the radio when it;s 
connected, so I always let it complete reading the radio before I make any 
changes. I get error messages from the radio periodically too. Just keep 
trying until it syncs. Usually once it syncs up I don't have any issues as 
long as I don't turn the radio off.

Let it sit on the "Names" tab for a bit. On mine, for the B side It takes a 
while for the names to be read from the radio. Also be aware that I'm NOT 
seeing the names and memory bank selections for A or B being saved off to 
the chirp data files in the current version, I think that is still a work in 
progress.

Read from the radio first, then try to import the data file.
