[chirp_users] "Failed to communicate with radio: Incorrect ACK on serial port."
I recently got a Yaesu FT-65. I didn't get the programming cable from Yaesu (it's $40), but I did get one that works for it that has the same chip. I'm running Windows 11 and have the latest version of chirp. When I plug the radio in and press read from radio, I get the error message "Failed to communicate with radio: Incorrect ACK on serial port." I've tried different cables, drivers, different modes on the radio, looked through the issues, looked up the error, I even tried it on a spare laptop running Linux to see if Windows was the problem. Same error there. Is it the cable or something else? If anyone knows or had this problem before I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks
I have had good luck with the BlueMax 49rs programming cable abt $25 + bucks

At first I thought it was the cable, but I remembered that the Amazon question and answers section had a bunch of people say that the cable I bought worked with the FT65. If I can’t find a solution, I might get a cable from the place you mentioned.

That radio likes the proper Yaesu cable.

Does the cable work with Yaesu's free software?
Yaesu FT-59, the Win 11 compatible programming cable is $20:

This Yaesu document confirms that's the right cable:
