This fork: Yaesu FT5D driver (branch feature/ft5d-sd-backup)

This branch adds Yaesu FT5D SD-BACKUP file support on top of PR #1621

  • open and save the radio's SD-card FT5D/BACKUP/BACKUP.dat directly (no programming cable needed);
  • correct display of memory names typed with the radio's fullwidth ("2 byte letters") keyboard.

How to use it

  1. Install a current CHIRP build from https://chirpmyradio.com
  2. Download chirp/drivers/ft2d.py from this branch.
  3. In CHIRP: Help > Developer Mode, then File > Load Module and pick that file (see the LoadingTestModules wiki page).
  4. On the radio: [DISP] > SD CARD > BACKUP > Write to SD, copy FT5D/BACKUP/BACKUP.dat from the card, open it in CHIRP, edit, File > Save As back to BACKUP.dat (same name), copy it to the card, then * > Read from SD > ALL* on the radio.

Caution: this has been verified on a single FT5DR. Keep an untouched copy of your BACKUP.dat before writing anything back to the radio, and use at your own risk.
