I had the same problem, tried multiple USB ports on two computers, 2 op systems, and all the drivers I could find. Finally purchased a cable and software from RT Systems. Worked fine. I haven't tried the new cable with Chirp. Kent AF7QO On Sep 15, 2015 9:41 AM, "alfredmjones@yahoo.com" al@aljones.us wrote:
I need some ideas here. I have a Baofeng UV82L that I program with Chirp and have no problem cloning this for the various UV5? radios that people have around here. I'm comfortable with Chirp.
Recently purchased a TYT 9800; I have no problem programming that from the front panel, but I'm a computer junky and it's normally easier to enter / fix radio data programmatically.
Running Windows 10, updated; have a cable that claims to be a TYT (the label on the cable); when plugged in device manager reports "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"
The Prolific 3.2.0.0 driver announces itself as being available on com 4 when the Baofeng cable is plugged in; however I see no com ports available for the TYT - I have not been able to get either the driver that came with the disk or the one available fro Grapevine (retailer in Dallas) to install.
Any comments / suggestions would be appreciated. I'm at a loss.
