Mark,
I’ve had the cable for a long time, but never really used it. As best I can
recall, it was a cheap cable. I’m inclined to just find a good replacement. Can
you recommend a good source for quality cables?
Thanks.

Hi Jerry.
A common cause for that problem is the cable having insufficient or
intermittent contact with the socket on the side of the radio. The
plastic around the socket on some radios and/or the plastic around the
connector pins on the cable is sometimes a bit to thick or irregular

I’m new to Chirp software. The equipment I’m using is a Yaesu FT 60 and a

If you're going to use a software defined radio (SDR) then the "software" that
dedines the radio's functions is DSP, carried out at RF or IF frequency. Ideal

Be careful saying 'encrypting' in an Amateur Radio context. Encoding is
okay, encrypting not so much.

On receive, audio DSP takes audio from the receiver's detector and possibly

On transmit, the DSP gets it's audio from your microphone and feeds the

What? Is there no way to transmit data over RF? I thought that that was
a transmit mode, in eligible frequencies. I guess the info transmitted
must go through the mic input and out the spk jack, as those are the
only jacks in my handheld. But I really thought that data transmission
was possible. Oh
You're not going to do that using any connector normally provided on the radio.
You can send the data out of the computer through a serial port but it will
need to go directly into the modulator or VFO on the radio. There are special

Hi Robert,
I see Linux sees the device just fine, and you should be in the right

If that doesn't work then maybe the output of CHIRP run in the command

As someone else mentioned, you need to be a member of the dialout group
/dev/ttyUSB0 is correct.
Click on any folder to open file manager. My preferred file manager id caja.
You might have something else installed depending on which desktop you're using.

In linux, typically the groups you might need for this kind of

Go to file manager and look in /dev/ and see what appears and disappears when
