[chirp_users] New Daily Build

[Scott Raines]

Dennis,
 Well, I’ve actually made some progress. Since one of you told me to push the “Windows” tab on the keypad, and then type “chirp”. I did that and, it (the computer) now brings up a blank screen that has a few choices at the top. One of them being “Radio”. I click on that and, is then says “download from radio”. Yahoo, I’m getting somewhere. Then I get a screen that asks for com port, vendor and model. Well, I've got (4) com ports on my laptop and, I’m having a hard time finding out which port is which.
  So, I’ve tried putting the radio into different com ports and clicking download and, it keeps coming up with an error that it can’t find program. But, at least I’m farther than before. Thanks again for your assistance. I’m getting there.
Scott

Scott,

You are thinking that the file you are downloading and running is Chirp. It’s not, it’s the file that installs Chirp.

Once the installation is done you have to start Chirp.

There's no problem with Chirp.

It's Microsoft that should provide the guide for those that don't know how to install a Windows program.

Chirp should make a trouble shooting section that deals with difficulty in loading its program to new users
I definitely appreciate you trying to help here. I’ll keep trying.
