Gang,

Installed Chirp. I am using a cable that I got from some Windows software that I used to program the FT-8800. It works fine with that software. I just don't use W for much and would like to do away with it all together.

When I put the 8800 in clone mode and clicked OK on chirp, I got an error from Chirp saying that it did not have permission to use /dev/ttyS0.

sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyS0 fixed that at least for now.

Trying again produced : "An error has occurred failed to read header 0"

Any thoughts?

Steve
