WRFH675 Posted November 13, 2023 Report Posted November 13, 2023 I want to move about 25 channels in the 75-99 block to the 200-224 block. But I can't seam to figure it out. I can't even copy/paste one single line at a time, let alone all of them at once. I've tried using the keyboard shortcuts as well as the in-software copy/paste buttons. Quote

I have the ham version of this radio and while I haven't used the manufacturer software you can do what you are looking to do with the beta they have in Chirp. Chirp is currently working on the software for the KG-Q10G along with the KG-Q10H and you will be able to do this with Chirp. Here's a link to their progress. WRXB215 1 Quote
WRFH675 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Report Posted November 13, 2023 Thanks for the info! I have the regular version of Chirp but I can’t seem to locate a place to download the beta version. It’s probably staring me in the face, but if you can show me where exactly, I’d appreciate it. Thanks. Quote
WRUU653 Posted November 13, 2023 Report Posted November 13, 2023 For info on Beta loading go here. Looks like the issue number for the KG-Q10G is #10925. More here. The Beta for the KG-Q10H worked good for me so I hope the same is so for the KG-Q10G. Good luck. WRHS218 1 Quote
WRFH675 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Report Posted November 13, 2023 Perfect! I’ll give this a try tomorrow. Thanks again! WRUU653 1 Quote
WRHS218 Posted November 13, 2023 Report Posted November 13, 2023 I don't have the Q10G but I do have or have had just about every other GMRS radio Wouxun makes. I have never found a way to do what you are looking to do in any of the Wouxun programming software. I tried for a while to get CHIRP on my very old windows 7 laptop. I finally gave up. As a side rant I sure wish you could copy and paste from one version of their software to another but you can't do that either, not even between the 935G and the 935G Plus. Good luck! The Q10G looks like a fun radio. Quote
WRUU653 Posted November 13, 2023 Report Posted November 13, 2023 A little more info on loading the Beta in Chirp. First open newest version of Chirp and select load module from the drop down menu enter the number for your particular models issue number (number assigned to new model from Chirp developer). In the example I used the number for the Q10H. Then select your model as you would in regular Chirp and you should be able to download from your radio. Keep in mind it's a beta version and all that goes with that... Quote

CHIRP is available on multiple platforms, including Mac. Quote

CHIRP is available on multiple platforms, including Mac. I am retired and actually do use Windows 7 on an old Lenovo laptop. We don't have anything newer that isn't a chromebook. I just keep laptop around for radio stuff. I will eventually have to get something newer. I am not a computer person although I used them for the last 30 years of my working career. The last time I used an Apple product was in 1991 and it was a MacIntosh all in one computer (toaster Mac). I downloaded the Q10G software so I could take a look around but so far have not been able to make it work on my machine. Quote
WRYS709 Posted November 13, 2023 Report Posted November 13, 2023 Did you try the legacy version of CHIRP? https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/legacy-20221217/ They say it should work in Windows 7 WRHS218 and WRUU653 2 Quote

WRFH675 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Report Posted November 13, 2023 I just gave that beta of Chirp a try and it all worked great! Thanks again! WRUU653 and WRYS709 2 Quote
WRUI477 Posted November 16, 2023 Report Posted November 16, 2023 Apologies in advance that I'm hijacking this thread just a bit. But since you all appear to be experienced with the programing of this model... Does anyone have experience programing the Q10G with a 3rd party cable like the Mirkit? Or is it best to stick to the official Wouxun PCO-001 with this model? Quote
WRUU653 Posted November 16, 2023 Report Posted November 16, 2023 @WRUI477 I personally do not have any experience using any other cable than the red Wouxun cable for Wouxun radios. WRHS218 1 Quote
