A few days ago, I had a friend come over so we could program his Yaesu Vx8G and we had a few problems writing back to it … I see that there are two new updates in the last two days but I do not see if the issue I had was addressed…. ANYWAY here is what I can determine..
Using chirp-daily-20121106-installer.exe, it could read but it would not write to it. So I installed the last release of chirp-0.2.3-installer.exe and it worked fine. Did the latest daily build address the problem that I had with the 20121106 build?
No, I haven't made any changes to the VX-8 driver in a long time, and none since the 0.2.3 release. Thus, AFAIK, it working on 0.2.3 and not on any daily since then makes no sense to me. If you are _sure_ about this, please open a bug on the website and attach your debug log from when it fails to write.
