I have a brand new baofeng UV-82 but can not get the program to recognize it. I keep getting an error message “can not open port”. I have downloaded the lasted version of the program. Any ideas? Using windows 10 on pc.

Hi Dean, Make sure that the cable is really tight in the radio. And, open device manager and see what port is in use, and make sure the same port is selected in Chirp. That is where I would start.

Open device manager and look under comm ports. That should tell you which chip is in the cable you're using, but more importantly what port it's on.
If you've done this already - you don't say - then check and make sure you have the correct UV-82 selected. //al

I've had this happen, too. It's surprisingly difficult to get the cable properly seated. Like, sometimes you really gotta push it in there. You'll know when you properly get it, as there will be a solid click. That should take care of the problem.
Remember, when troubleshooting, start easy, and start cheap.

Visit Miklor.com and look up your error message for a possible explanation. It's probably related to having the incorrect driver file installed for the UART chip in your cable. Also, study the section about Cables & Drivers for the fix. Good luck John - KZ4KY

Thanks, it is always good to post the solution. Sometimes when I do web searches for an answer, I find forum posts with a question like mine, and it's frustrating when the solution wasn't posted.

It was windows loading the wrong driver for the prolific usb cable. The link from John LaMartina solved the problem.
