Does anyone have the Factory Original Flash memory File for the Wouxun D901 DMR HT? My friends HT is still locked up. I cannot emphasize more to when buying any radio to reset it, save that File labelled Factory Original Settings, and work then using that File after saving it. He did not (along with many others).
Interesting comments on the Baofeng BF 888s 16-Channel UHF HTs. I owned one briefly, did not have a programming issue with it using their Factory software. Also I used the RT Systems USB-K4Y Cable which works flawlessly. Those Generic Fake Prolific Cables seem to be hit or miss. You must make sure Windows does not automatically search its Database for the real Prolific Chip Driver. So have your supplied CD disk handy and install it ONLY. Also, be careful Windows during its daily Windows Update does not automatically reinstall the real Prolific driver while you are not looking. Happened to me once, very annoying.

Hi Jeff,
Just landed at Chirp. Using it for programming the Baofend BF888s. We use about 30 of them at a sporting event. I was intending to make some programming changes but find that some of the radios will enter programming mode and some will not. Wondering if you have heard of this before?
Yes. I have heard of this before. This won't be easy to resolve unless the owners of one of these radios that won't enter programming mode would help to determine what is different about them. So far there hasn't been much assistance in that regard. The only other way would be to get one of these radios into the hands of a developer so the issue can be studied directly.
Do all of the radios program OK with the same Baofeng software? If they require a different software, which software?

It seems I have two obscure radios. ?Has anyone encountered the LYT Q-18? ?Perhaps it is a clone of a supported radio? ? Ron ?

Hi Jim: I have all the radios with me. They were all bought together just weeks ago. I will try backdating my USB driver to the one recommended and then give it a try. I have only tried CHIRPS daily at this time but might try the BAOfeng software to see if it makes a difference.

Great. It will help to know if the same radios fail with the Baofeng software or is the same software does them all.

Hi Jim,
..... so, how can one guarantee ( without dismantling the cable ) that there is a genuine chip within the cable? I'm even suspect of the Baofeng cables.
Garth. zl1tue ..... an still shakin'

Hi, s'cuse me butting in but.......
will these work under windoze 10 ?I noticed that the webpage only mentioned xp, vista, 2000, win7 etc. in other words do you still have to use the backdated driver?
Garth, zl1 tue
When using a Prolific type chip based programming cable with Windows, you might as well count on using the backdated driver because the majority of these chips are counterfeit. The device driver auto installed by Windows has been incompatible with counterfeit chips since around 2008. The backdated driver will work no matter if the chip is genuine or not.
V2.0.2.1: Windows XP V3.2.0.0: Windows Vista, 2000, 7, 8.x and 10
Both drivers can be obtained from links on the miklor.com website.
