I seem to have inadvertently set channel A to receive only. That is, I cannot switchh to it via the A/B button or switch to it via the PTT top. I cannot find ant specific control that performs this function. Does anyone have any thoughts? Steve -- SRH

I disagree. I have four diffrent cables from Rtsystems and have never had any problems. I have their cable for the US 5 series and have programmed over 30 of the Baeofeng for club members and for the local C.E.R.T. and the cable has NEVER failed me. Maybe you are doing something wrong while attempting programming.

They employ FTDI USB to serial TTL chips which have been reprogrammed with non-standard Vendor IDs and Product IDs. Their cables are no better or more reliable than any good quality cable using a standard (non-counterfeit) USB-to-serial chip. They are just a necessary evil in order to use RT Systems software and a poor choice for use with CHIRP. From http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/CableGuide_FTDI_OEM_Cables : Some cable vendors use the FTDI serial chip in their USB radio cables, but have changed the chip's ID codes so that the cable will not be recognized as a generic serial communications port. By default CHIRP (and some other software) will not be able to use these cables because CHIRP needs a serial port. Most notably RT Systems sells such cables. The article at the link shown above goes on to say: [To] use such a cable with CHIRP there are two options. You can either get your computer to recognize the OEM cable as a generic serial port by tweaking the driver setup, or you can change the cable to use the default FTDI codes, so the standard FTDI driver present in most operating systems will recognize the cable and create a standard serial port. The first option may “break” after an OS upgrade and the second option leaves the expensive cable unusable with RT Systems software, which was the whole reason why it cost more in the first place. It’s even uglier under some versions of Windows and OS X; those interested in learning more can read what’s on the official CHIRP website. I spent $6.99 on a cable for my BaoFeng handheld, $8.99 on a cable for my Kenwood TM-281 mobile, and $14.99 on a cable for my Yaesu FT-2900R mobile, all from Amazon with free one or two day shipping. Total spent: $30.97. The first two use Prolific chips and the latter uses an FTDI chip. They have worked flawlessly under OS X and Windows 10, requiring no mucking around with drivers or reprogramming of the chips embedded in the cables. Buying RT Systems cables for those radios would have set me back $113.04 with equivalent 2-day shipping. That’s an $82 difference — and I can think of a lot of ham-related goodies to spend $82 on. 73, Fred Maxwell KM4QLB On Mar 16, 2016, at 11:34 PM, kc6iih via chirp_users <chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com> wrote: The best and most reliable cables come from www.rtsystems.com Yes they are not cheap but they work every time.

While the "defective"cable requires the older driver (as do my other two "non-defective" cables) and does a download and upload without issues, this is the only cable that then causes the radio to go into transmit after uploading a configuration file ... followed by the normal power off/power on of the radio. Disconnecting the cable immediately after the power off seems to preclude the erroneous transmit indication. The first problem is still a puzzler. While the workaround of resetting the fields is acceptable, I am still curious as to why/how this was suddenly manifested as my UV5Rs are several years old. -- John 73's de K9RSQ On 3/14/2016 11:50 PM, John Randle wrote: > I have been maintaining several UV5R's with Chirp for a couple of > years without any issues. > I am currently running Chirp Daily Build 20151126 on W10 to program > several UV5R's.

[chirp_users] BAOFENG UV-5Rs acting strange when programming with Chirp
by John Randle 17 Mar '16

17 Mar '16

I have been maintaining several UV5R's with Chirp for a couple of years without any issues. I am currently running Chirp Daily Build 20151126 on W10 to program several UV5R's. I have recently experienced two strange programming operation issues, with all the UV5R's, that I have not previously encountered. First problem: After downloading the current configuration of the UV5R's, I then proceeded to add some new memory channels that use Digital Coded Squelch settings. When programming the … [View More]

The best and most reliable cables come from www.rtsystems.com Yes they are not cheap but they work every time. Jock A.

While the "defective"cable requires the older driver (as do my other two "non-defective" cables) and does a download and upload without issues, this is the only cable that then causes the radio to go into transmit after uploading a configuration file ... followed by the normal power off/power on of the radio. Disconnecting the cable immediately after the power off seems to preclude the erroneous transmit indication. The first problem is still a puzzler. While the workaround of resetting the fields is acceptable, I am still curious as to why/how this was suddenly manifested as my UV5Rs are several years old. -- John 73's de K9RSQ On 3/14/2016 11:50 PM, John Randle wrote: > I have been maintaining several UV5R's with Chirp for a couple of > years without any issues. > I am currently running Chirp Daily Build 20151126 on W10 to program > several UV5R's.
