This page is aimed mostly at the newcomers to ham radio and aspiring amateur radio operators.
But, if you are a 'pro', feel free to explore this section of our website. You stand a good chance of finding something useful.
Most of us are software 'users'.
However, some of us do know how to program. We are fortunate enough to be able to design and code our own, custom made,
But, what if you have never programmed a computer before . . . and would love to learn how to? No problem!
You proceed the same way you did when you began studying for your ham radio license: start with the basics and, then, one step at a time!

General Considerations
Ham radio software used to be available exclusively for the Windows operating system (O/S).
But, nowadays, some software applications are also available for other platforms and devices, operating under other computer operating systems:
Amateur radio software is either free or sold.
There are gems and duds in both camps!
Most ham radio software available is destined to run on a desktop or laptop. However, an increasing number of amateur radio operators are using tablets and even smart phones in the shack (or at work or school, looking for info during lunch break! ;)
Therefore, an increasing number of applications are now becoming available for these new smaller platforms. One can even remote-control an amateur radio transceiver using software running on a smart phone! You just can't stop progress!

CHIRP is distributed as a series of automatically-generated builds. Any time we make a change to CHIRP, a build is created for it the next day. Thus, CHIRP is versioned by the date on which it was created, which makes it easy to determine if you have an older build. We don't put experimental things into CHIRP before they are ready, except where specifically called out with a warning. Thus, you do not need to worry about finding a stable version to run. You should always be on the latest build available.
Ham Radio Logging Software Mac Os X
Upgrading: You do need to uninstall an existing version of CHIRP before installing a newer one. Just install the new one and it will replace the existing copy!
You can find a complete test report of the current build here and a matrix of supported models and features here
Windows Users¶
- CHIRP runs on Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10. Older versions of Windows are not supported
- Most users will want to download the installer.exe file, which installs CHIRP like a normal application
- The win32.zip file is for advanced users wishing to run CHIRP without installing
MacOS Users¶
- New Mac OS X must install the runtime once before running CHIRP. After it is installed, the runtime does not need to be downloaded or installed each time. Download the KK7DS Python runtime for Mac OSX.
- OS X support is limited to Intel architecture. PowerPC is not supported.
- Chirp.app is unsigned. With default security settings, you will need a special procedure to run it: Application Security in 10.9.
Homebrew users can install Chirp without the KK7DS runtime by running
However, running CHIRP using Homebrew is obsolete. MacOS Unified Application build is now the recommended way.
brew install tdsmith/ham/chirp
and then running chirp
from the terminal.However, running CHIRP using Homebrew is obsolete. MacOS Unified Application build is now the recommended way.

Ubuntu Linux Users¶
If you are using Ubuntu linux (or a compatible variant such as Mint) you should install and use the PPA like this:
After installing the build from the PPA, new updates will be included in your normal system software updates. Also see the Running on Linux page for additional steps required to gain access to your serial port.
Other Linux Users¶
If you don't run a distro for which we have packages, you can run CHIRP right from the tarball available through the link above. Most modern distributions should have almost everything required to run chirp. Make sure you have and packages installed. For more information about using CHIRP under Linux, see the Running Under Linux page
