I have also buzzed out each line from plug to PCB, and all is good there.
Did you "buzz" between the wires to see if any were shorted?
However, when I open Chirp and try to download the radio, neither of the
two led's associated with TXD and RXD lights up.
Still sounds like there is a programming cable issue.
Although this is a UV-5R Plus, do I still use the UV-5R option, or should
I be using the BF-F8HP as the model?
UV-5R: radios with 2 power levels (HIGH/LOW) BF-F8HP: radios with 2 power levels (HIGH/MID/LOW)
Oh well, plan B it is then - get 3 wires and one each of 3.5mm and 2.5mm
stereo jacks!
This is what I did.
