Comment (by dzubey@…):
Here's some help. Spend the evening here working with the software trying to get it working with my TM-V71A. Here's a few notes:
In a terminal emulator, when I type ID at 9600N81 I get back "TM- V71M90200539\r". I think the code is expecting "ID TM-V71A", and trying to take the rightmost part of the string. That won't work. (tmv71a_ll.py)
Secondly, I only get a reply to the ID string once. Any other attempts are met with silence. I'm tired, but I remember at some point the code waited for a \r, which this radio gave after the ID, and that got put into get_id but it shuts up afterwards, so the code locked up.
Oh, also, my radio doesn't reply to anything over the serial port unless it's turned on into program mode, by holding down MR and PM while turning it on.
Anyways, hope that helps debug a big more. I'll join the mailing lists tomorrow.I did try the beta code, but to no avail.
