[chirp_users] Connecting issues to VX5R solved

[Marty Hartwell]

Hi

Thanks to all that have tried to help me solve this issue. Turns out to 
have been a slight
operator error, I think.
After getting the correct driver installed, I did mention that I saw the 
com port number
in device manager. I also was not getting the second window but that was 
solved by the
new build I installed. On my XP system when the window with com port and 
other choices
showed the com port was populated, on the Vista system is was not. So I 
added "Com 3"
in the slot, vendor and radio, attempted and failed, many times.
The solution turns out to be I should have entered for port, "com3" 
which worked fine. Things
on the Vista are getting somewhat better but still not like it was 
before the reload of the OS
but progressing. At least now I can make changes to the memories of my 
Vx5R, FT817 and
FT2800 fromt he PC I may be portable with.

Again thanks to all who have responded with ideas.
