[chirp_users] TYT TH-9800 Plus
I am on my 2nd day of trying to program this TYT TH-9800 plus. I installed the correct USB driver.
Tried in CHIRP repeatedly with various ports and keep getting "Communication" error. (Failed to communicate with the radio: Unable to communicate with the radio) My radio is currently Port 14 - however this does not show up in the list in CHIRP. Even When I manually put it on port 3,4,5, no success. Same with TYT software, it seems like it ONLY wants port 3, however when I place on port 3, no success. Very frustrating. By the way - this link doesn't work (404 error) http://chirp.danplanet.com/download/beta/
I'd appreciate any help - Thank you
Is the port speed between the radio and the program set correctly? If the radio is set at 4800 and the program is communicating at 9600 or whatever, it is not going to work.

The problem is the port. Try changing the port number in control panel to something lower than 8.
Chirp has to see the same port number as the cable you are using for it to work. That is your problem.
