2 #3-05/02/ :41 pm - Bob Edmiston - File BTECH GMRS-V1 Incorrect Model selected.jpg added While the new update in daily build 'CHIRP daily ' works fine with the newest of the newest BTECH GMRS V1 radios with the first 22 channels locked, it has problems with the original BTECH GMRS V1 radios which have only the lowest 16 channels locked. Now, I can't even download a known good configuration from a radio that works well. Nor can I upload to the radio any longer in the latest build. #4-05/02/ :41 pm - Bob Edmiston - File BTECH GMRS-V1 Incorrect Model selected.jpg added #5-05/02/ :05 pm - Bob Edmiston Channels from the original BTECH GMRS V1 radio can be successfully downloaded using DAILY build So, perhaps you may simply swap in the download code from that build to solve the current bug with downloading from the original radios, of which I own two. #6-05/03/ :37 am - Unroe I have only the pre-2107 rules model. It worked fine the last time I tested it. Please include a debug.log file. It should help with diagnosis. #7-05/03/ :51 am - Unroe The How to report issues shows how to locate your debug.log file To create a "clean" debug.log file... 1 close CHIRP 2 open CHIRP 3 create error 4 close CHIRP #8-05/03/ :53 am - Bob Edmiston - File debug.log added here is the debug file. The problem happens on the GMRS V1 purchased on Amazon.com on October 9, So, it's a recent but not super new model. My older one from October 14, 2016 works just fine. #9-05/03/ :06 pm - Unroe - File gmrsuv1_usg2411.py added The radio identifies itself with a string that was not provided by BTech when the driver was updated to add support for the models that support the new 2017 GMRS rules. 10/01/2018 2/5

3 Test the attached temporary module (gmrsuv1_usg2411) to see if it takes care of the issue and report back. To use the module, click Help and enable "Enable developer functions". Then click File and then "Load module" to locate and the attached module. This module does not permanently change your CHIRP installation. Every time you load CHIRP, you will have to load this module before you can download/upload from/to this radio or load saved files from this radio. #10-05/03/ :49 pm - Bob Edmiston - File unable to load module.jpg added When I attempt to load the.py file, I get the attached error "Unable to load modules: invalid syntax (gmrsuv1_usg2411.py, line 1) #11-05/07/ :22 am - Unroe Bob Edmiston wrote: When I attempt to load the.py file, I get the attached error "Unable to load modules: invalid syntax (gmrsuv1_usg2411.py, line 1) Sounds like you right-clicked the link and chose "Save link as...", which download the download page, not the driver. You must click the link, then after the next page loads, click the "download" link. #12-07/13/ :02 pm - Kurt Bantle Line 45 in the temporary driver above (gmrsuv1_usg2411.py) is incorrect, "fb4 and should be "fp4". I still don't have this working, it's throwing incorrect model error. I'm getting this for model: 000: US32412U 008: ff ff SG Does anyone have a log from older version? Thanks, Kurt #13-07/13/ :15 pm - Unroe - File gmrsuv1_usg2412.py added Good catch, Kurt. That wasn't the only mistake. Try this. KC9HI 10/01/2018 3/5

Thanks for the help with this. #17-07/14/ :59 am - Unroe Are we good with this now? I'll submit a patch if we are. #18-08/22/ :10 pm - Gary Gardina CHIRP version daily did not work for me. Uninstalled older version & installed clean daily - CHIRP did not recognize my radio as Btech GMRS-V1. Manually setting to Com 6 BTech GMRS-V1 allowed me to load an old.img into the radio, but would not download from the radio. I loaded the: module and was then able to successfully download/upload without issue. Please include this patch in the current daily. Not sure if this has anything to do with the issue, but with the original recovery image loaded - Browser root firmware_msg is: line1 US32411 line2 USG2411 Gary #19-08/22/ :19 pm - Gary Gardina 10/01/2018 4/5
