I have been using Chirp since shortly after it came out. Yes, I have checked and that is not the problem. If I can get a clue from other users of this radio model, maybe something changed from earlier versions of Chirp.

Starting with the simple solution first. Click the down arrow on Port and see if there is a different port.
I know with my Boafeng, if I plug the cable into a different USB port the COM port changes also. And sometimes the old one will still be listed and I have to manually move to the new port.
Try that first.

Well, a week has gone by. I ran the comms for the 5 Boro Bike Tour last Sunday with 34,000 bikes over 40 miles. Since I could not get my D710GA programmed for it, I had to use my Anytone5888 which has never given me problems. So I am back at the Kenwood problem tonight. To start things off, I hand programmed about 50 memories in the MCP software and did an upload "in one go" without this "live mode" jazz. Everything is working perfectly. Now I go to Chirp, go to Download From Radio and choose the Kenwood on the same Comm Port as the MCP and ..... NOTHING! Not one channel downloads into Chirp. Nothing on any type of scroll bar. :( Can anyone who has used Chirp with the D710GA tell me anything? No armchair theorists please.
