WINDOWS TIPS:

CHIRP-next is supported on Windows 10 and later (64 bit)

Older systems can use CHIRP Legacy which is supported on Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/8.1/10/11

Windows XP users may need to follow the instructions here if you have trouble starting CHIRP.

MAC OSX TIPS:

CHIRP Next Supports Intel and Apple Silicon (OS X Big Sur and newer)

The Chirp.app is unsigned. With default security settings, you will need a special procedure to run it: Application Security in 10.9. More useful tidbits can be found at MacOS Tips.

LINUX TIPS:

Most modern distributions should have almost everything required to run chirp.  For more information about using CHIRP under Linux, see the Running Under Linux page
