[chirp_users] VX 7R Upload Issue
I successfully downloaded all the frequencies from my Yaesu VX7R using Chirp.
I am a Mac user, downloaded Python and have followed all the steps carefully. I have an RT Systems cable and downloaded the Mac Driver. My Mac reads the cable by name when I choose it for download/uploads from the Mac on Chirp.
I am unable to Upload the original file (that I did not edit), or the edited version I hope to Upload.
Cloning is working in Rx mode when I start Upload and I get the progress bar. Every time the progress bar reaches about the "N" above "Cancel", my VX7R switches from Clone Rx to VF0 430.000. Then the progress bar only continues to the "L" above "Cancel", and everything freezes. Often the freeze can be stopped with Force Quit, other times I have to shut down with the power button on my computer.
I have also tried using a Future Technology Devices International cable which my computer recognizes as well (downloaded driver from FTDI website).
Any suggestions? Now my radio has none of the Fx on it that I so painstakingly entered manually (100+). I'm thrilled there is hope for programing with my Mac and hope I am just missing something.
Thanks in advance, Angela KD0GMG

For those of you not following the bug tracker, this is related to: http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/1147
There she posted a debug.log with the line: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor
That error is returned by the operating system when it is not able to communicate with a driver. If any of your could recommend an appropriate driver I'm sure she would appreciate it.

I have contacted her off list and offered to overlook her driver versions, what version of OS-X she is running etc... That way it will keep the traffic down to a minimum here on list.
