I think this is too much information and will probably confuse some
people. I think trying to convey to the user what you're talking about
is not something that the average user will really be able to use to
diagnose the problem. I can just see the bug reports now: "CHIRP fails
because it can't find my GPS" or something :)

I think you should just say something about the radio doesn't seem to be
connected to the serial port selected.
