- same developers as CHIRP?) and a Raspberry Pi I put together a
really simple portable CHIRP updater. I manage my CHIRP image
file for my QYT-KT8900 mobile radio on my laptop and save the
files to a Dropbox directory. Then, I shared that specific
image file and grabbed the Dropbox share link. Next I cobbled
together a small script to run on the Raspberry Pi (runs out of
cron on reboot) that does a wget of the latest image file from
Dropbox and runs the command-line chirp.hg - then shuts down.
No soldering or GPIO work needed.

I haven't tried the command line version but just bought the
Raspberry Pi display so I can see how well CHIRP will run with the
touch screen.<br>
