[chirp_users] Radio still does not respond
To review my problem: Win7, Prolific 3.2.0.0 7/31/2007 [installed and reinstalled and reinstalled] on com 3, CHIRP 0.3.1, plug end filed down and pushed in HARD, and still get "radio did not respond" when I attempt to download from the radio. The miklor.com page has no suggestions for this error msg other than to file down the cable. Anything else in anyone's bag of tricks?

Madison,
Someone on the UV5R group said they actually needed to pull the cable Out a tiny bit to get it to work.
It's a long shot, but 'any port in a storm'.

try plugging the programming cable into a different usb port. I'm pretty sure this was my error problem, i use an older dell laptop. I attempted to use the usb ports on the side, no joy. for S & G's I plugged the cable into one of the usb ports on the back, and bingo.. Dell Laptop running XP-SP3.

Madison,
When the cable is plugged in, the driver is loaded to that com port.
If you change com ports, the correct driver needs to be reloaded to the new port.
I believe that’s what you are experiencing.
