[chirp_users] Error Trying To Download From FT-1D

Thu Feb 12 10:49:44 PST 2015

I found two web pages that together suggest that the device is actually 
using an FTDI chipset internally.

The first is actually an entry in the CHIRP issue tracker:
- http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/967

They tore the device open and found an FTDI chip inside.  They also 
added the IDs to allow the driver to load, but it didn't seem to be 
working.  The suggestion is that the driver needs to have these ids 
added to it.

The other is a product brochure from RATOC that suggests using an FTDI 
driver package with their converter (but this was on Android, of all 
things).  Still, it points to FTDI as the right chipset.

I started to see if I could download the Yaesu driver for Windows and 
take it apart to see what actual driver was inside, but for some reason 
I cannot get to the Yaesu website.
