Charles, I have never gotten my radios to sync either and Finely gave up. I even bought 2 cables thinking it was a cable I followed all the instructions just like you. If you succeed, please email me back Gary A Cox Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 22, 2020, at 4:12 PM, Alan Hill wrote: > >  >

Did you check Windows Device Manager to see if your cable shows to be a Prolific cable? If it is, try rolling your driver back to 3.2.0.0. Check www.miklor.com for info. Check under Drivers. Jardy Dawson WA7JRD Message sent byOh look!! Pretty lights!! > On Aug 23, 2020, at 08:24, Gary A

Re: [chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating

If Windows does an update, it might change tho the ‘latest and greatest’ version of the driver. If the cable has a fake Prolific chip in it, that driver is designed to make the fake chip not work, so you have to roll it back to 3.2.0.0.  The driver will also be updated if you plug the cable in a

Re: [chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating

no luck yet. I tried pressure straight into the radio, to the back side of the radio, to the front side of the radio, to the top of the radio and to the bottom of the radio. similar results, the LCD screen blinks and goes back to the beginning screen. thanks again for the suggestion > On August

Re: [chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating

NO luck yet. I held the plug in as far as it would go, no change. I turned the volume up all the way, no luck. I closed CHIRP and re-opened as Administrator,still no luck up or downloading. thanks for your assistance > On August 22, 2020 at 4:11 PM Alan Hill wrote: > > Try making sure yo

Re: [chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating

hi, still no luck. I went to the web site and put a death-grip on the plug and held it in as far as it would go. I trimmed a hair of the edges of the plug to let it seat on the bottom. thanks for the suggestions > On August 22, 2020 at 5:55 PM John LaMartina wrote: > > This may assist. >

Re: [chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating

1st the volume level has no effect on data transfer...   Sometimes a little plastic shaving is needed.  Shave carefuly a little off the plastic shroud around the cable male connector where it plugs into the radio as it interferes with the radio's case prventing the connector from solidly seating.

Re: [chirp_users] Chirp and BaoFeng UV 5R not communicating

I forgot that you are on Windows. The windows OS is very poor supporting USB. You might try going into the device manager and tell it to show hidden devices. Once that is done, look at the USB entries and delete all of them that are diminished icons. That is, they are lighter than the other

I would almost bet that we get the 5100a running the 4100a might come in on the same ticket, radio appears to be a subset of the 5100a. On Sun, Aug 23, 2020 at 8:03 PM Jean C. Velez wrote: > What about for ID4100a? > > On Sun, Aug 23, 2020 at 20:03 Chuck Hast wrote: > >> I have asked the same q

Prolific driver is _NOT_ for use with a CH340 chip. Are you sure you are using the right COM port. What operating system are you using? What is the exact error? On 8/23/20 11:15 PM, Jeremiah Williams via chirp_users wrote: > My Baofeng cable is a ch340. I says error when I try to upload my radio
