Sorry, my bad, I did write in the terminal: apt-add but here I think I turned it around. So I still get input output error. In fact, I purposely wrote add-apt-... in the wrong order, with the rest of the correct command, and I should have gotten something like not found or something, but I got input output error with add actually first. So, what causes it to come back with that error? Thanks.

Hi, I have done this many times before, I don't know if the error is coming from the site or if it means something is amiss with my system. I just today installed Ubuntu Mate 16.4.3 onto USB and ran an update. Than in a terminal, I ran: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots and I get the error: input output error
That is not the correct command. You have "add" and "apt" swapped. The correct command is...
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots
You should copy and paste the commands from the download page or the the "Running CHIRP Under Linux" page into terminal.
