I hate typing sudo first.
I always do sudo su or sudo -s first so I can type whatever I want without the
worry of leaving out sudo.

Phil,
Someone gave you this command, but they forgot to start it with "sudo" and if
you didn't use sudo the command will not work.
sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0
Check the ownership of this:
ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
This will list the owners of /dev/ttyUSB0.
See if you're in the group that is listed.
Enter this command:
groups
It will return the groups your a member of. You have to belong to the group
that is listed when you gave the command: ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
If you disconnect the USB cable then reconnect it. You can confirm the device
name by this command:
sudo dmesg | tail
You should see lines that says "new device" and it will give the address of
the new device, that's the device CHIRP needs to use in order to work .
Try that,

Hello everyone,
I said I'd report back after I received another programming cable. This
one contains an FTDI chip and, of course, the radio is still not recognised.
The cable connectors must not be making proper contact. I've read
suggestions that the cable needs to be pressed in firmly. If I press any
harder then I'll surly break something.
What a pain!
