Also, editing an existing channel with CHIRP is often more convenient than deleting and reprogramming a channel using internal radio menus. It can also create new channels on the Wouxun radio, but that capability might depend on the radio.īlind and vision-impaired hams can use CHIRP to make programming changes that are not accessible via a small radio display screen. What CHIRP DoesĬHIRP is a programming tool designed to edit most of the settings stored in the channel memory of UHF/VHF radios.

The pdf file gives a column by column explanation of CHIRP. The rest is pretty self explanatory if you use the programming guide in pdf form. This populates the spreadsheet fields which you can now change.
On top line go to the Radio heading and do an initial download from the radio. With the driver installed, you connect the cord and radio to the computer and let the computer recognize that a new piece of hardware is connected. I have my copy of CHIRP on a WinXP box and it needed a driver for the usb cord. Run it, and it makes whatever folders it needs and copies files to them, even making the desktop shortcut for you. With the Installer executable you can just leave it where you downloaded it. EZ Squeezy! Some people feel more comfortable doing it this way!

Make a folder in Program Files called Chirp, copy the zip file there and unzip. The zip file is just all the CHIRP files gathered ready to place in whatever folder you want to place them. I recommend it to anybody looking to program their new HT hassle free.
Overall the software is a lot easier to use than any software that is developed by the radio manufacturer. Of course, you have to adjust a few easy settings on what your radio is.
The best part is one program fits all radios so you can easily copy a program from one radio to another. With chirp you can program almost every major manufacturer's amateur radios. After asking around on social media for help, I was recommended to a programming software called Chirp. I didn’t have any access to the programming software since it didn’t come with the rig originally. The radio didn’t come with a programming cable, but I soon found out the cable was the same as my wouxun. Obviously, I’m in Kansas City so it wasn’t much use to me. The radio was lightly used and programmed for repeaters in Topeka, Kansas. As many of you know, I already had a Wouxun KG-UVD1P HT, but the radio was $40 why not. Earlier today I purchased a Baofeng UV-5R HT.
