Re: [chirp_users] chirp_users Digest, Vol 101, Issue 12
I have two laptops; both DELL. One is W-7, the other: W-10. CHIRP & Baofengs program nicely on the W-7; not the W-10, 'tho I'm not surprised.
Thoughts?

I guess that you mean the above to be interpreted as a question and a request for help in using Chirp.
I'm no expert and won't attempt to answer but:
If you wish someone on this list to help you use Chirp to connect to your radio, it probably would be a good idea to give them a bit more information.
What did you try specifically to do? What operating system? What responses did Chirp give you? Which version of Chirp are you trying to use? Have you been successful with Chirp before? Etc.

Hi all. I bought a KT8900 at the beginning of the year, and my FTDI cable showed up about a week ago. Eager to get more than 2 channels programmed in (the programming interface sucks!), I plugged my cable in to the BACK of the radio like all the sites say, and.... Nothing... Fiddle, fiddle, fiddle, nothing. Different radio models, the whole works, radio would not respond.?
My model has what the manual calls a data terminal jack on the front.
I tried it, the cable fit perfectly, and the radio responded just fine. I don't know if this is true if all KT8900s, but if yours has a front jack, it's a good idea to try it.
Cheers

Roll your cable driver back to Prolific 3.2.0.0, if your cable shows it to be a Prolific.

I would suspect that you have a programming cable with a counterfeit Prolific chip and you have not downgraded the driver to v3.2.0.0.
