but does not download from radio with my FT60R (with a different cable, of course. ExpertPower although in Win7 it says Prolific)
Here are the conditions running under a Ubuntu derivative OS (Zorin).
chirp Daily-20120111 GTK 2.24.4 PyGTK 2.22.0 Python 2.7.1+
And the debug log last entry is
User selected Yaesu FT-60 on port /dev/ttyUSB0 Clone thread started Trying again... Trying again... Trying again... Trying again... Trying again... Trying again... Trying again... Trying again...

Beats me...acts like the magic word isn't recognized by the radio. Or the brand new cable is B/O.
