[chirp_users] No tty/USBx showing in dropdown list.
Still having problems getting my Yaesu FTM-3207D to connect with CHIRP-daily, using Ubuntu Linux 20.04. The connection dialogue does not specifically show this radio, so I use the nearest selection FTM-3200D. Then when selecting the Port type and number, it only offers serial ports /dev/ttyS0 thru 31, and no USB ports. All thoughts and help greatly appreciated? Many thanks and 73,
I would guess that you're using a cable who's USB/SERIAL chip isn't recognised by Ubuntu. What chip is in the cable?

Thanks again, Nigel. I’ve spent too much time on this already and have decided to go with RT Systems. Chirps documentation isn’t too thorough and so better suited to those with more time on their hands: “..... better at writing code and adding new features than writing documentation “ Thanks again & 73.

You know what? When I have a port issue like this I go into /dev/ and execute an ls, look at what is in there under the TTY's then I plug the USB device in and execute a ls and compare the two screens, the critter I am looking for always appears under some form. It has never failed for me. (For Windows folks this is for Linux) I would try that and see what appears then try to see if Chirp is seeing it, I have never had it fail to do so.

Unless your radio has a native USB connection (no USB-to-serial converter in the cable - this is not common), you won't see a /dev/ttyUSBx device. Instead, it's indeed one of the /dev(ttySx devices you must use - you need to find out which one.
