Sorry to chase this rabbit trail, but my search of the wiki
<http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home> for the procedure
you mention didn't return any results. Can someone kindly point this
n00b in the right direction?

If a fake flash drive is a concern, use H2TestW as mentioned here.
http://fightflashfraud.wordpress.com/2008/11/24/h2testw-gold-standard-in-detecting-fake-capacity-flash/

If the drive's good, it should work with no errors. If it's burned with a
fake capacity, it'll let you know what the real capacity was.

Also, if the drive is not fake but has a defect, it'll catch that too. I
have had several Sandisk MicroSD cards go bad and H2TestW reminds me that
the corruption problems aren't my fault, it's the card's... zowie!

Thanks, Tom.  I will have to check that.  I don't know much about the fake
drives and what you might get if you buy a drive from a discount house but
that could very well be my problem. I will also try with a different
thumb-drive.
