well the program tested the cable and said it is working just fine. I tested it both with and without the opc-1797 cable attached with the same results. So that would seem to indicate a problem with the radio or chirp.

Well if Miklor couldn't help you, there is a cable loopback tester. http://www.kc8unj.com/soft.html
It will scan your computer for COM ports and test the cable if it is a kind that sends TX and RX serial data over the same line. If not then you just need to jumper the TX and RX together. So as Jim says if the cable won't pass this test it won't work.

I went to the miklor site, my driver shows up as being a supported driver for a FTDI cable which I am using (driver version 2.10.0.0). I tried a different computer and still the same thing. So far I have tried two windows computers, a mac computer, and checked every suggestion I can find on the web (ftdi chip website, miklor etc) and the chirp mailing list. I have rebooted my computer several times. I have even performed a factory reset of the radio. Nothing I have tried has allowed chirp to talk to the radio. I am at a lost as to what could be the problem unless the cable could be bad. I have programmed the radio in the past with the RTSystems cable and software using their opc-478 cable and the icom 1797 cable. That is why I was hoping someone in the raleigh area of NC would happen to have both chirp and the IC-92AD functioning correctly, so I could try their computer and cable to see if it was the radio or if it was my cable and/or computer.

Dwayne go to www.miklor.com and take a look at their cable and troubleshooting guide. You can usually find info there that will actually solve your problem. I've sent many there and they usually got things sorted out. The Icom 91/92AD is listed in the daily build as supported so you may have a cable or driver issue. Roughly 80% of communication issues are driver oriented and Miklor will help you eliminate any driver issue you might have.

Yes sir I verified the com settings and that the cable is fully seated.

Did you make sure to set the correct com port in the Chirp program to coincide with the port that the cable is attached to when hooked to
the
computer? Did you also make sure the cable is plugged in all the way?

Any hams in the Raleigh NC area that are using chirp (preferably with
Icom
92ad) that could help me troubleshoot why I can't program the IC-92ad?
