TYT TH-7800 programming software
Open WebCHIRPWebCHIRP programs the TYT TH-7800 in your browser. It runs the CHIRP project's own driver for this radio, so it reads and writes the same codeplug the desktop software does — without installing anything.
No driver install needed
TYT programming cables use a CH340, CP2102, PL2303 or FTDI USB-serial chip. WebCHIRP speaks to all four directly from the browser, so there is no driver package to download and no Windows version to match. Plug the cable in and pick the port when the browser asks.

Questions
Do I need to install a USB driver to program the TYT TH-7800?
No. WebCHIRP talks to CH340, CP2102, PL2303 or FTDI programming cables from the browser, so there is nothing to install on Windows, macOS or Linux.
Do I need the TYT CPS software?
No. WebCHIRP runs CHIRP's own TYT TH-7800 driver in the browser, so it reads and writes the same codeplug the desktop software does.
How many channels does the TYT TH-7800 hold?
800, numbered 1 to 800 in the channel table.
