I have a couple of old Kenwood TK-762H transceivers. I see the issue on http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/3139 but I seem to be having troubles. When I attempt to read from the radio using TK-762G it appears to read from the radio then dumps the error dialog "An error has occurred: The radio doesn't accept program mode"


ERROR: -- Exception: --
ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/ui/clone.py", line 238, in run
    self.__radio.sync_in()

    self._mmap = do_download(self)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760g.py", line 517, in do_download

    raise errors.RadioError("The radio doesn't accept program mode")
RadioError: The radio doesn't accept program mode

ERROR: ----------------

If I attempt using TK-760 chirp attmpts to read and almost immediately dumps the error dialog saying "An error has occurred Radio refuse to enter into program mode after a few tries"
ERROR: ----------------------------
