[chirp_devel] Quansheng Programming

[The Silver Fox]

Not sure but the trace of the program that works opens, closes and re-opens
the connection before sending.  I have tried different baud rates, stop
bits, and byte sizes but the radio does not seem to respond to the commands
as it does in the serial tracing.

Why do you think that will help? What sort of troubles are you running into?

The serial port is opened right before it calls your driver:

ser = serial.Serial(port=settings.port,
                    baudrate=rclass.BAUD_RATE,
                    rtscts=rclass.HARDWARE_FLOW,
                    timeout=0.25)

So, you can do that again in your driver for debugging if you think it will
help. However, I'd encourage you to tell us what you've tried, what you've
learned, and ask for help. There's a lot of collective knowledge about
reverse engineering radios here :)
