[chirp_users] V82

[Milton Hywatt]

I'd like to add to this. Once you get the proper driver installed,
especially in Windows 7, leave your cables plugged into the same
port. If you switch USB ports, Windows 7 may re-enumerate the
cable's ID tag in the registry and go out to the internet driver cloud and download the latest
driver which might not work. So it's best to buy a USB hub if you
can't dedicate one USB port to the cable. I had to do this since I have
four different cables for 3 transceivers and a GRE digital scanner. Also
have a bluetooth dongle, USB laser printer and USB keyboard/mouse
combo.

Your cable is more than likely okay.
The driver for Win7 is Prolific 3.2.0.0, XP is 2.0.2.1
Any driver newer than that will have potential issues.
 
Refer to the Drivers section of http://www.miklor.com/UV82
http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php
The proper drivers are available there.
If you are receiving error messages, refer to the miklor.com Error Message page.
 
Please report back to see if this resolves the issue.
Hope this helps.

I had the same issue on my UV 5R, it was a cable problem. There are at least 2 different cables available, the one with the silver label worked
