I have used chirp on my baofeng and my kenwood with awesome results. I just got a icom 7100 and I am not able to get chirp to talk to it. I have tried different computers (both w10 if that matters) and different usb cables (the one that came with the radio and another I had). I installed the USB driver software from icom and when the radio is plugged in to either computer I see com4 and com5. When I tell chirp to read from radio on com4 and tell it the radio is an icom and to auto detect the model chrip sees that its an ic-7100 but I get 1 memory per second and the name is error. If I try to put something into the memory chirp comes back and says timeout error. I saw a bug report that someone posted about the ic-7100 saying their civ address was set wrong and the fix was to use 88h. Mine is set to 88h and it does not work.
Does anyone have any tips/tricks/suggestions to help me get chirp to talk to my new ic-7100?
Thanks.
