[chirp_users] USB<--> RS-232 cables
by Mike Heitmann 15 Dec '11

15 Dec '11

All the programming cable discussions prompted me to pass this tip someone else gave me along: On the recommendation of someone I met at the D-RATS booth in Dayton this year, I've made several programming cables using these devices: http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/Cables/USBRS232.htm They terminate to bare wires so you can put whatever connector you need on the end. It's also easy to slip a copper braid over the wire for shielding if that is required. I've had no issues using them on Windows or Linux. Mouser sells them: http://www.mouser.com/Search/m_ProductDetail.aspx?FTDI/USB-RS232-WE-1800-BT… This model is RS-232, but they have them for TTL an RS-422 as well. I'm using them for radio programming and D-RATS data with my IC-2820, IC92 and ID-880, and for radio CAT/PTT/CW keying with my IC-706 and K2 HF radios. The '706 CAT cable is connected homebrewed CIV circuit covered with black heat shrink tubing. It makes a nice, compact cable. The '92AD requires the addition of a DB9 connector to mate with the ICOM radio cable unless you're willing to sacrifice it and cut it's DB9 off. Mike Heitmann, N0SO

[chirp_users] debug.log

Attached is debug log as per your instructions. > I got the cable from KaWa on E-bay, recommended by another Ham. Good. > Yes, I followed instructions to the letter. Appreciate any other > suggestions. The 2800 has been problematic for some folks, but I thought we had gotten those issues worked out. Which version are you using? Just so we're clear, you're hitting the button to initiate the transmission on the radio *after* you have clicked "okay" on chirp and caused it to open the progress box, right? And, you're in clone mode (ready to hit the transmit button) on the radio before clicking okay on chirp, right? If so, please send me the debug.log file after trying to clone and I'll see if there's anything obvious in there. -- Dan Smith www.danplanet.com KK7DS _______________________________________________ chirp_users mailing list chirp_users(a)intrepid.danplanet.com http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users

Truth is a person: Jesus Christ.* *This is what separates Jesus Christ from every other leader of every other faith. Other leaders have said, “I’m looking for the truth” or “I’m teaching the truth” or “I point to the truth” or “I’m a prophet of truth.” Jesus comes and says, “I am the truth.”*
