[chirp_devel] Quansheng Programming

[The Silver Fox]

Just another guess at something to try.  I do get answers from the radio at
certain port settings but nothing that matches what I expect.  I tried big
endian, little endian, swapped bytes, and got nothing intelligible.  I used
gtkterm and got similar junk.  The responses do not make sense.  The only
thing I noticed is that under Linux the radio blinks its display on chirp
startup whether or not the radio is on.  It does not do that under windows.

Thanks for the advice.
Alan

This isn't your problem, but be sure to change this :)

This isn't replicating what your trace shows. Why are you sending an extra
carriage return?

Presumably you get nothing back, is that right?
