SM-land codeplug (Sweden)

Hi!
I'm working on my codeplug for Sweden, hopefully to be shared in this thread soon, and whipped up a quick python script to import the repeater database from
www.ssa.se. The program, along with example output is available on Github here:
https://github.com/SA0ASM/rptconvert
If there is interest from neighbours in LA/OZ/OH-lands then I may support them in the future as well. Feedback is welcome in this thread or by email!

Hello, very good news! Can you also prepare a DMR and FM codeplug for LA?

Sure, try importing these CSV files which include all the LA repeaters in the SK6BA database.

Hi Olle,
Sorry to say the script do not work for me.
See attached errors:

Is it win10 or wrong Python version.

It works better on Linux, but I tested on Windows and you need to install windows-curses as it complains about missing module '_curses'
Code: Select all

Hej!
The curses module is actually not needed and you can remove the import statement.
Your other issue seem to be related to the file not being correctly detected as UTF-8 encoded, I'll see if that can be hinted to allow it to work on Windows.

What character coding should the output be ?
Looks like it's in UTF-8 , to my knowledge the CPS and Radio only support plain ASCII ?
I can probably convert the files with "iconv -t ASCII//TRANSLIT" before they are imported into the CPS.

An update.
I tried importing the CSV files as is ( with UTF-8 chars ) and it looks like gibberish in the CPS with Chinese characters but "åäö ÅÄÖ" is displayed correctly in the radio.
But as we can see that frequency and location data is corrupt even if they are correct in the Channnels.csv so the coding confuse the CPS import.

Yes, this is a known issue in the OpenGD77 CPS. The label texts are converted to a chinese character set in the GUI, however importing UTF-8 from CSV works fine as you have witnessed. I have reported this bug here:
