About:
CHIRP is a free, open-source tool for programming amateur radio equipment. It supports a wide range of radios from various manufacturers, allowing users to easily manage frequency memories, repeater offsets, and other settings. Its cross-platform nature and intuitive spreadsheet-like interface simplify complex radio configurations.
Key Features:
  • Supports hundreds of radio models from different manufacturers
  • Intuitive spreadsheet-style interface for easy memory management
  • Cross-platform compatibility (Windows, macOS, Linux)
  • Can clone, merge, and import/export memory files
Use Cases:
  • Programming memory channels for amateur radio transceivers
  • Managing repeater offsets, tones, and other radio settings
  • Creating and sharing frequency lists with other radio operators
Alternatives:
  • RT Systems Programming Software – Commercial alternative offering vendor-specific, polished interfaces but lacks CHIRP's broad, free, cross-platform support.
