Which cable did you buy? I did some reading before ordering the cable & spent the extra for the "FTDI Authentic Genuine" cable. I downloaded daily-20160507, followed recommended startup & see 128 channels. Programed 2 BaoFeng BF-F8+ (UV-5R), no problems. Seems to work great for a radio that costs 1/2 of the replacement battery price for my Yaesu... ;-)

I ordered a programming cable for my Baofeng UV-5RV2+ and the first time I tried to download from the radio I got 25 channels. Trying again only channel 5 and 6 would show up. I upgraded the the latest version of CHIRP and now when I try the radio just reboots and CHIRP says an error has occured, radio does not respond. Did I get a bad cable?
Thanks
