[chirp_users] FTM-3100R

[Andy Zaayenga]

Thanks, Paul.

I'm feeling pretty much stuck at this point. I have the BlueMax49ers cable
which appears to work fine – it’s not Mark's fault CHIRP doesn’t have a
working software for the FTM-3100R. RTSystems is proprietary and won’t work
with non-RTSystems cables. Is there any other programming software anyone
could point me to that I can investigate?

By the way, I'm not being critical of the CHIRP team. It's a wonderful
software and I get that they can't cover every radio in the world. I use it
for my Yaesu FT-60R without problem, and it is super useful.

Is there some way I can help CHIRP develop the FTM-3100R implementation?

Andy
