[chirp_users] Prolific update and amateur pirates

[Ken G]

My cable was included with my UV5R so I have no idea whether its genuine or
not. It works, which doesn't necessarily mean that its genuine, but I'm
happy to buy a genuine chipped cable if I know where to buy one. The
Prolific website link in Dean's post referred us to two recommended sellers,
but neither of those had cables for the UV5R (that I could see). Does anyone
know of a source for a genuine chipped cable?

Well, in most cases, no one knows they have a counterfeit until they get the
cable and it does not work properly.  I have not ever heard a retailer
saying "We sell fake chips".
