Subject: [chirp_users] Trouble with
programming ICOM IC-2200H
Was hoping I could find some help getting my IC-2200H programmed.
I've tried downloading from the radio using a generic brand
cable I bought off Amazon.
The procedures I've tried:
Example
1:
1) Put my Icom in cloning mode.
2) Select "Download from Radio" from
the Radio menu in the Chirp application.
3) Verified the Port.
Selected "Icom" as the vendor. And "IC-2200H" as the Model.
4) Click
"OK"
Result: Before I can even hit the button on my Icom that starts
sending the data, Chirp briefly flashes the "Cloning" progress bar and then
throws an error of "Unexpected response from Radio".
Example 2:
If I
repeat the above steps, but instead select "Detect" as the Model, I
immediately get an error saying it can't detect the radio. I didn't
expect it to work, but I wanted to rule it out.
Example 3:
1) Put my
Icom in cloning mode.
2) Select "Download from Radio" from the Radio menu
in the Chirp application.
3) Again Verified the Port, Vendor, and Model as
stated above.
4) Before clicking "OK", I pressed the button on my Icom to
start sending data.
5) Then I clicked "OK" in the Chirp
application.
Result: I tried this pressing the start button on
the Icom before clicking "OK" in Chirp, and I've tried pressing them
simultaneously. This method returns an error saying "Out of sync with
radio".
I've search through the archive and see the same errors I'm
seeing, but on posts that are several years old. The responses usually
recommend checking for a driver issue, but I've done that. The cable
itself seems to be functional to some degree, at least to me. I wouldn't
get the "Out of sync with radio" error if the application didn't receive
anything at all, right? While I don't have another device to test this
particular cable with, I do have another cable that I use to program my
Baofeng UV-82 with. The alternate cable uses the same chip (PL2303) and
therefor the same driver/module, and that works just fine. I am able to
download and program my Baofeng without any issues. So to the best of my
troubleshooting abilities, the cable doesn't seem likely.
Additionally,
the previous posts also reference Windows machines, but I am running Linux and
I do not have a Windows computer at my disposal. I am also using the
chirp-daily package on my system and made sure it was updated. Currently on
"CHIRP daily-20161123" at the time of this writing.
Any further
suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
-Joe
