[chirp_users] TH-D72A Access Issue
Rechecked COM4 port in Device Manager (Windows 7). Shows port is operational. When I select Download Radio, drop down shows COM4 and Kenwood/TH-72. After selecting OK, nothing seems to be going on w/the CHIRP program. Appreciate any troubleshooting assistance. Thanks! 73, Scott

Is any other program open that might be stealing the port?
After closing Chirp, can you open and download with MCP-4A?
Dumb question... you do have the radio turned on, right? The USB-Serial will enumerate as COM4 whether the radio is on or off, but the radio only responds to commands when it's turned on (normal VFO or memory mode, turn off GPS and TNC to simplify things).

Oops, sorry I didn't think of this sooner... You're reporting a known bug that was fixed 4 months ago. I thought there had been a release since then, but it looks like it's targeted for 0.2.3. You'll have to run one of the daily development builds to fix this issue. Try this:

You mean this?

LPD/PMR is a European thing, somewhat analogous to the US's FRS/GMRS.
