Bough a cable for my Baofeng and Kenwood F6a.

Can download and uplaod on Baofeng but Kenwood has problem.

First- I am using the F6 as the model number because there is no F6A listed.

When I try to download I get two different types of failure-
1- sometimes get the transmit LED on the radio blinking once or twice and then but I get a blank grey main chirp page
or
If I use Detect for model name, I get a delay and then a "No response from radio" error message.

Is it possible that this cable only works on the Baofeng?
