Ok, problem solved.
I ordered a new cable, there are 2 cables out there, an old one for about $6 and a new one for $12, the new cable works perfect both on a windows PC and my MAC. Its a great combination, easy to pgm, I really like and recommend this little package. Let me know if someone has a problem, I know the setup buy now.

Correct, 706 is not programmable from a PC.

They have not set it up to work with the 706 MKIIG.
<list snipped> Thanks, Brad. Confirms what I feared. I had seen that list, but didn't know how old it was.
Now to find something that does work with the 706.
As for the 897, by the time I got things hooked up correctly, and used the correct sequence, just the reverse of the download, I got the file into the rig.
Darn ! !good program, CHIRP!
Grateful for it, and for the group's help/support.
