rtsystems usb cables I believe won't work with chirp. RT codes there cables to only work with their software. need to get a prolific or ftdi chip cable.

Greetings Don,

You mention that you are able to program your FT270 by selecting 160 in CHIRP; what cable are you using? I have an RTSystems USB cable but have no success using CHIRP to connect by selecting the FT 160. The message I get is either 'Radio did not respond' or 'Unable to load header'

Any suggestions?
