Apparently another side affect of this issue has been that when there are mmultiple com ports available, only 1 port would in the list to choose from. I plugged in 5 USB-to-Serial cables and all 5 COM ports were in the list.

I modified the registry to make one of my ftdi cables show up on com14. Both the old port (com4) is listed since it was the last used, along with the new port number com14. Com14 works in chirp to download my radio as expected on win10 x64. Seems ok to me! ________________________________ From: Dan Smith via chirp_devel Sent: 10/12/2015 1:37 PM To: Alex K; chirp_devel@intrepid.danplanet.com Subject: Re: [chirp_devel] [patch modified] doesn't recognize multiple commports in Win 7 - issue #2783
