Hello everyone, I have a Baofeng BF-UVB3 8W radio. My computer is linux, running Ubuntu 18.10, the newest. I have CHIRP installed and running, but I am not able to find the COM port for my radio, connected via a USB programming cable.
I have entered every terminal command line I could find info about on the internet, even one that showed me port numbers for connected devices, yet there is no port number or path that works for my radio.
What COM port should I use?
On every Linux distro that I have used it has been "/dev/ttyUSB0", On a new install of CHIRP I've always had to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the list of ports to find it.
