GT,  
   please make certain your cables are completely seated on both the 
radio and the PC sides.

Yes, I understand that, but downloading and uploads from your radio follows a modified "cloning" procedure. 

In essence you computer running Chirp is another radio and you are
      cloning.

The important point I was trying to make was to set your radio to
      receive before setting Chirp to send.

            notation will appear on the displays of both radios when the
            Clone mode is successfully activated in this step.

            -” will appear on the LCD).

            appear on the Source radio, and the data from this radio
            will be transferred to the other radio.
>8. If there is a problem during the cloning process, “ERROR”
            will be displayed. Check your cable connections and battery
            voltage, and try again.
>9. If the data transfer is successful, “CLONE” will reappear
            on both displays. Turn both radios off and disconnect the
            cloning cable. You can then turn the radios back on, and
            begin normal operation.

>>Following he procedure It will read from the radio,
              populated the CHIRP spread sheet but then on the upload it
              fails. A message appears "Failed to communicate with the
              Radio. Radio did not respond" I tried it a few times as
              per the video on You tube. Do I need different driver?
