CHIRP now has the programming software for this radio listed under the correct model number & name in October 2020 just FYI if nobody has mentioned it in the comments before.I just ordered one of the radios 15 minutes ago & it comes with the programming cable as well.I will be using mine for the local repeaters & some Simplex operations from my shack.

I just programmed my KT8900R using Chirp under Linux. I guess they must have added it to the list nearly five years on.

You can actually open a .csv file in Excel or any alternative spreadsheet program, and it will have the same cellular layout that you would see in CHIRP.

I received one of these from eBay this morning. When I programmed it all went good until I got to the offset. It only shows one reading, will not change. I reset the unit which changed the offset frequency but again unadustable. My small voice told me to forget about Chinese junk but I didn't listen. Back to ebay....

bought a new QYT KT-7900D....setup a few local repeaters, and it worked fine. The very next day the radio says "KILLED" at the bottom. The seller has refused to refund and said that it has entered "remote kill" mode. That should have been impossible since I never even connected the radio to any software in order to activate. Since, the seller told me to connect to the PC and open the QYT programming software. So far I have not been able to do so. The file comes up as an RAR file. It simply will not open. Ive tried to open in Chirp, and again nothing. Any ideas?

My QYT KT-8900D has been KILLED! I assume someone has sent the DTMF code to do that. The DTMF table in the QYT proram shows 60606 for control and 666 for Kill, 777 for Revive. I have tried those codes but no effect. I hav managed to get in with Chirp but don't know how to do a Factory rest.

I just purchased the QYT KT980 and can't get it to communicate with CHIRP. It does not show up on a Com Port only under Other Devices USB-Serial Controller. I've tried downloading a few things from QYT Dowload website but nothing is working. I'm not to versed on how this is to be done but I'm at a dead end... Any help is appreciated. I've done this with a Baofang UV-5R and had a similar problem but it worked after downloading a correct driver. I can't find the Non-Chirp programming software either.

I've purchased 2 QYT's from Amazon and have gone through all the programming steps using the provided software. However, when I get to the final step (write to radio), I receive an error stating that it's unable to connect to transceiver. I've checked all my ports and everything looks good. Any thoughts?

You have to add a 10k resistor I think. Not sure about the value between rx and ground and tx and ground. Bridge both rx and tx to ground with 10k resistors

Yes, but you need to make sure the programming cable is inserted into the front of the radio, and connected to your computer (with Chirp already running) or you won't get the results you want.

Obviously your maths is virtually non existent if you have to use a calculator to work out the offset frequency!
