I think I may have selected the "International" version of the 817ND, because I was getting a "Error" on the 817 screen at the end of the upload. I started all over...and it worked. As us pilots used to say..."Suffering from Cockpit Turbulence"!  It's working fine now, and got the 60M  M603 reprogrammed fine!

Dick,

I had the same problem until I realized that there are two possible selections in chirp for the FT-857.  The first one was "FT-857D".  It did not work.  The second was "FT-857D  US" and that one did work.  See if there are the same options for the FT-817 (generic and US model).

When I download the 817ND using CHIRP (latest published download), I am not seeing the M601-605 channels even with "Special Channels" checked. I do see all the VFO's etc. The 817ND is new, bought at Dayton, but just got the data cable, and CHIRP is working fine with my Wouxan UVD1P.

Any ideas? or did Yaesu just do a better job of "hiding" the channels?
