Please take this sort of discussion to the developer's mailing list. More info

That said, I hate to tell you but reverse-engineering serial protocols and 
memory formats is how all of CHIRP was written. The best scenario is when the 
radio manufacturer hasn't actively tried to obscure the protocol, but some of 
them definitely have. You will need to *at least* sniff the OEM (usually 
Windows) software's communication, unless the radio has a clone function you 
can sniff. And that will only open the door to decoding the actual image 
contents once you get it.

Anyway, if you need specific help, please continue this discussion on the 
developer's mailing list from the link above.

Thanks!
