[chirp_users] Once Again, Yosemite Has Broken CHIRP

[Pat Anderson]

When I first put Yosemite on my  late 2011 Macbook Pro, CHIRP continued to
run fine to program my Baofeng UV-5R.  Then for no apparent reason, since I
didn't change anything, all I could get was "The radio did not respond."  I
am using the latest daily build of CHIRP.  So then I went to the net to
research Yosemite and drivers and found the Terminal command to allow
unsigned drivers to load and the command to load the kext for the driver
that had been working.  This appeared to work for a while, I was able to
download from radio and upload to radio, and I thought all was hunky dory.
Then in a day or so, once again it stopped working.  Nothing I try works, I
have tried all the various drivers on miklor.com, although they don't even
mention Yosemite, they stop at Mavericks.

I have a programming cable from cheapham.com, which I assume is a generic
chipset, since it cost all of $8.  This cable works reliably on my 2006
white Macbook and my 2006 iMac, both running Snow Leopard, so I can program
my Baofeng with CHIRO, but I sure would like to be able to use my Macbook
Pro. Is a new more expensive "genuine" FTDI programming cable going to fix
the problem on Yosemite? Which one from which vendor?

Thanks!
