[chirp_users] Successfully programming BF8HP with CHIRP

D. Q.
Sat Mar 21 12:56:58 PDT 2015 

Hi, I've been using CHIRP to download/upload programming images to my 
BaoFeng BF8HP since I got it a few weeks ago.  I use the BF8HP field 
selection in the radio upload/download window and haven't had any 
problems.  I obviously use the most recent build and update with the 
most recent daily build, and again no problems.  Personally I always 
download the programming image first, make changes, then save the 
changes and upload the programming.  This way I know the link and 
software are working by downloading first, and this (maybe I'm wrong 
about this) way I'm not altering the radio first.
Just some positive feedback.
Thanks,
David KG7RXE

> This submission makes FT-2900 cross tone support more robust, and protects
> against a problem where the radio would sometimes use the high order bit
> of the tone and/or DTCS code field as a bit flag.  The code had been
> using the entire byte as an index into the TONES or DTCS_CODES array,
> and when the high order bit was set, the value was too high by 128,
> resulting an array bounds error.  Fix is to alter MEM_FORMAT to separate
> the high order bit flags from the lower 7 bit tone and code fields.
> This also adds some error checking via a "try" block to catch any
> remaining array bounds errors (though none are expected).  And it
