<div dir="auto">Agreed. I have two IC-207H's and would loan one of them to a Chirp programmer to allow them to create the code. I would even pay return shipping fees just to get this radio in Chirp. It was a very popular model just a few years ago, and its successor (the IC-208H) is already available in Chirp. It's a mystery why the 207 was overlooked. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Robert Shaw </div><div dir="auto">K5RMS </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div id="composer_signature" dir="auto"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"><div style="font-size:85%;color:#575757" dir="auto">Sent from my T-Mobile 5G Device</div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div><br></div><div dir="auto" style="font-size:100%;color:#000000"><div>-------- Original message --------</div><div>From: Chuck Hast <kp4djt@gmail.com> </div><div>Date: 7/29/20 11:14 PM (GMT-06:00) </div><div>To: "robert.m.shaw" <robert.m.shaw@verizon.net>, Discussion of CHIRP <chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com> </div><div>Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Icom IC-207H </div><div><br></div></div><div dir="ltr">Different radio but same ideal.

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">The gating factor is usually
the radio. If none of the developers has one, or has access to one, that makes
it very difficult to assess what's needed in the driver, and impossible to
test any code that's written. This is why you'll see an "equipment loan
offered" field in the issue tracker.</div>
