[chirp_users] Radio did not respond error

Baofeng UV-5X3Cable PCO3 Had to get drivers to get to this stage but radio does not respond. Do the red and green lights on cable usb end have to remain on or just flash on when you plug in. Computers is a HP windows 7.Paul KB2VEC

[chirp_users] Unable to read UV-2501
by john bryant 26 Aug '16

Just got a new Btech UV-2501 and unable to read from radio. Error message "radio did not enter clone mode". Then the radio restarts? Anticipating a request for logging files, I downloaded the manufacturer's programming software and installed. Whenever I try to read from radio, the radio repeatedly cycles on and off until I shut down the software. Any thoughts? Thanks, John, N5SU

[chirp_users] Chirp and the volume control

I'm curious, why does Chirp advise you on Baofengs "(volume may need to be set at 100%)"? Ken

[chirp_users] Not working with new Baofeng UV-5X3

My new Baofeng UV-5X3 tri-band HT -- https://baofengtech.com/uv-5x3 -- just arrived and CHIRP does not even communicate with it. I have a fair amount of experience with other Baofeng models and the software, and I confirmed that exactly the same configuration and cabling is still working with my UV-5R. I have the 20160819 release of CHIRP. I tried using the UV-5X setting first, and then after than didn't work tried a number of other settings including UV-5R, BF-F8HP, and so on. The "Clone progress" dialogue is shown but the progress bar remains unmoved, an error dialogue pops up that reads "An error has occurred" and "Radio did not respond", followed by a delay before the radio lights up its LED green and then red. This is on Windows 10 and I could try on Ubuntu 16.04 if requested, but as I said this is a working system for other radios. -- Mike

I received the programming cable from Valley Ent. Plugged it in to the pc and to the 880h, but Chirp does not see it. I downloaded the Icom clonging software and it works perfectly. Any thoughts? Dick W4RSS

I am using CHIRP to change the settings, Power ON Message, but it does not save it. When I upload to the radio, the original message is displayed and not the change. How do I get the changes saved? Sent from Windows Mail
