Hello,
I'm stuck! I am trying to program my KT-8900D with CHIRP, and I keep getting error messages, depending on which pc/laptop I use.
All of these are running Windows 7. In each case I want to "Download from Radio." And I have hooked up the programming cable after turning the radio off.
With my HP PC: After connecting the radio and turning it on, the 'cloning process' window comes up, then the the pc returns the message: "An error has occurred. Error reading data from radio."
With my Lenovo Laptop: Same set up. Error message is "Bad ack from radio."
With my Dell Laptop: Same setup. No matter which com port I specify, I get the error message: "could not open port (X): [Error 2] The system could not find the file specified."
Any advice that can be offered will be greatly appreciated. BTW, all three of these computers worked fine with CHIRP earlier. I do not know what went wrong.
Thanks, -73-
