Hello,
   I am not able to download from my radio using Chrip. My radio is a Baofeng uv-82. It is a new radio and I am new to chirp. My OS
is windows 7. The cable is a usb programming cable form Baofeng via amazon.

The cable drivers are installed corectly. I can open the com port under Tera Term and shorting the TX and RX contacts togethter I
can get it echo what I type. I can also probe the connection and see resonable data on the O-scope.

I have tryed the stable as well as the nightly build of chirp. When I try to download I get the error "the radio did not respond".
It is hard to see but I think the cable is seated al the way in. With just the cable and tuning on the radio, It will not key but as
soon as i plug the usb cable in the radio will key.

I have also tried to download from the radio on "copying" mode by holding down the 2 key while turning on the power. If I do this
with tera term opend to the right com port I get a repeating set of bytes that look to be binary (garbaled ascii chars).

Any Ideas?

thanks,
