My pofung GT-5 was purchased with a USB programming cable that has the Baofeng name on it.

I'm trying to use chirp to load a .csv file but can't seem to make a connect to the radio.

When the cable is plugged into a USB port on my Windows 10 machine should it register itself in the "This PC" list of attached USB devices?

The attached PDF has screen shots. Can anyone interpret these for me and/or help me with my problem?

Thanks!

PS I have read the FAQs, CHIRP documentation, Amazon (bought the cable there) sellers questions and comments and Prolific information but still can't make heads or tails with this problem.

Double-thanks in advance.

To all who responded,
Thanks for the help with this issue. Even though my serial cable worked
on the Baofeng, Puxing, and Kenwood Radios, it would not work on the
KG-UV8D. I purchased a new cable from Amazon and it arrived today
(Sunday, Thank you Amazon Prime). The cable worked fine on the Baofeng
and worked on the KG-UV8D.

Jim, you hit the nail on the head with this one.

Thanks again for all who chimed in.
