This may well be a faulty radio, but I will ask here just in case I am missing something subtle.
I own a UV3R Plus, works fine, programs ok with CHIRP - I will call this my "original" radio.
I have just purchased from EBAY a shiny new UV3R as a second radio.
I can plug the original radio into the laptop and program it with no problems, if I then unplug the cable and plug it into the new radio it fails to work (No ACK). I have tried re-starting CHIRP, I even tried the manufacturer software, nothing seems to make it work.
Do I need to do something to prepare the new radio or is it just faulty ?
Thanks, Jon
