<p dir="ltr">I have never had a problem using CHIRP.<br>
Although I would like to print out the settings.<br>
I also have not had any problem with RT SYSTEMS software.<br>
I guess you have to be like the point of a pencil rather than the eraser.</p>

I have yet to find in the instructions the so-valuable nuggets revealed here. 'Course, I'm about only half through all the docs I can find. Still, I was up and running with the RT Systems program in a few minutes on my Icom, and I have now spent hours on CHIRP, and not done yet.<br/><br/>Let's compare apples to apples here: how long did it take to edit a<br/>channel on the Icom with Chirp? Icom's are admittedly much more user<br/>friendly than the UV5R, and Chirp's UI was designed around Icom's<br/>programming paradigm. For example, like Chirp, Icoms actually have a<br/>Tone Mode setting, whereas the UV5R can only stores tones or no<br/>tones--there's no "mode" setting to turn them on and off.<br/><br/>Tom<br/>
