<p>Even though I didn't get chirp running from the command line, I
was able to run it with python3 chirpwx.py while in the source
folder. Here's what I found:</p>
<p>Orca is reading menus, and will allow you to open and save files</p>
<p>After opening a known good radio image, Orca announced to me that
the memories page had focus, but I was still unable to arrow
around and read the various memory values. I was able to export
the image to a .csv file, so a good image it definitely was.</p>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>These are the steps I took to install Chirp manually on
Ubuntu 22.04</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Steps to install Chirp manually on Linux.
<br>
<br>
1. Make sure you have at least Python 3.7 installed.
<br>
A. Type "python" in a command line terminal.
<br>
B. Some Linux distros require using "python3". If your
distro requires this, please type "python3" anywhere in this
document that you see "python"<br>
2. run "pip --version" to see what python version pip is. You
may need to run "pip3" if your distro requires you also use
"python3".<br>
<br>
3. Open a browser and navigate to <a
href="https://github.com/kk7ds/chirp" moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/kk7ds/chirp</a>
<br>
4. Click on the green "<> Code" button dropdown.
<br>
5. Click on "Download Zip" and save the zip file to your
preferred location. <br>
6. My file saved as "chirp-master.zip"
<br>
7. Unzip the zip file with the following command:
<br>
A. "unzip chirp-master.zip"
<br>
8. Change into the resulting chirp-master directory:
<br>
A. "cd chirp-master"
<br>
9. Pip install Chirp's dependencies:
<br>
A. "pip install -r requirements.txt
<br>
10. Install Chirp:
<br>
A. "python setup.py install"
<br>
11. Now you can start chirp by running "chirp" from the
command line. <br>
<br>
<br>
Note: On ubuntu 22.04 you might have to install
"python3-wxgtk4.0" before the pip install step.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Let me know if this helps. Orca was able to read me the
menu items while I moved around chirp with my arrow keys.</div>

</div>
<div>I just tested running chirp directly from the git
repository by installing the dependencies with "pip3
install -r requirements", then running "chirpwx.py" and
orca was able to read everything to me. I'm not an
expert on orca. I think the navigation worked, but it
