[chirp_users] VX-6 Cable Issue

[Tom Balaban]

It's been a while since I've modified the memories on my VX-6's. Yesterday I tried to make some changes and came across this issue. 

I'm able to upload but not download. When I try to download I get an "error" message on the Yaesu. Nothing happens in CHIRP until I power off the Yaesu then I get a failure message. 

I tried this on two different Linux boxes. One a Xubuntu 13.10 netbook and the other a Xubuntu 13.10 VM running on my MacBook. 

This is important to me since I often program radios of others when we officiate bicycle races. Being able to add frequencies to their existing list is essential. 

FWIW, a similar cable worked just fine on my Baofengs. 

TIA for any help.
