[chirp_users] Radioddity QB25 NOT QYT KT7900D
So I get one of those Radioddity QB25 radios. I was so glad to see that Chirp supports it!
When I choose "Download from Radio," I can select Radioddity and QB25. When I select "OK," the display shows QYT and KT7900D the Radio Identification is successful about 1/3 through the 'cloning' this error occurs... Invalid header at block x1180 What is the process for programing this radio?
Thank you!

Hi Gary,
You didn't provide any details about your setup. Assuming you are using Windows and probably purchased the programming cable from Radioddity, I would imaging that this is a driver issue. If the programming cable with manufactured with a counterfeit Prolific chip, you must download, install and select the Prolific v3.2.0.0 device driver. The driver automatically installed by Windows is intentionally incompatible with counterfeit Prolific chips.
This page has a link to the driver and instructions for installing it: http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php
I have multiple Prolific driver versions installed and switch between then a will to test for counterfeit Prolific type chips. Nearly all programming cables that identify themselves to Windows as having a Prolific chip in them is made with the counterfeit chip. I keep the v3.2.0.0 driver selected for daily use because it works for both the unauthorized chip copy as well as the rare genuine Prolific chip.

The set up is Windows.
The Radioddity SW works as well as it can: reads and writes but crashes at Ch 135... Channels before that write Okay.
It is NOT a driver issue.
Why does Chirp (ver 3/31) change the Radioddity QB25 to QYT Kt7900D? When I first purchased the radio last September, I tried to Chirp using KT7900D with no luck.

Gary,
Why does Chirp (ver 3/31) change the Radioddity QB25 to QYT KT7900D?
Because the QB25 model is just an alias to the QYT KT7900D model. You could use the QYT KT7900D selection as well.
When I first purchased the radio last September, I tried to Chirp using KT7900D with no luck.
Because Radioddity QB25 support wasn't added until 9/30/2017 (which would likely have been first available in the 01-Oct-2017 build).
Jim KC9HI
So far, neither works!

Makes sense. They will either both work or both won't work. Never one or the other.
