[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-5R5 "Radio did not respond"

21 Sep 2015


      I just got a Baofeng UV-5R5 radio and Baofeng UV-5R Programming Cable.  I
installed CHIRP 20150814 and Prolific v3.2.0.0 drivers.  When I try to
"Download From Radio", I get "An error has occurred - Radio did not
respond".
I hope CHIRP supports the UV-5R5 because the Baofeng software appears to be
in Chinese.  Every character displays as a "?" so I don't know if there's a
way to switch it to English.
