Thanks for your reply Fred, I use similar cables to programme Arduino boards and to read GPS data into my laptop without any problems. The laptop has three ports and I've tried them all and I only have one computer. I do have a Raspberry Pi, I wonder if that's worth a try? > Were both of your radios purchased at the same time - maybe they have > the problem. I only have one Baofeng radio, a UV-82HP. I have, in desperation, selected different Baofeng model but of course with the same result. As I said, I'm confident that the problem is at the radio end. I have tried three different cables. > You mentioned you were in Austrailia. We are full-time travellers and I've only come across one active repeater during the four months since I purchased the radio. I've made one contact and the operator hadn't heard of Baofeng or Chirp. -- Regards, Phil _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users This message was sent to arch...@mail-archive.com at arch...@mail-archive.com To unsubscribe, send an email to chirp_users-unsubscr...@intrepid.danplanet.com
