You are right, the MCP6 does an upload of the entire file and not in "live" mode. I use Chirp for other radios since it first came out with no problems at all. I am looking forward to someday using it with my DMR radios.

I recall having problems with this, too (F6A, V71A). I found that MCP was not "live" and would capture snapshots of all the memories, but CHIRP won't. I don't understand why CHIRP insists that updating must be live, when MCP doesn't. Awkward.
And I found the same hang on trying to update more than 1 channel at a time.
I went to using MCP to initially configure my radio, then swapped to CHIRP for the download and went from there, but updating 1 channel at a time. Have not revisited this recently, so maybe CHIRP handles this better now.
