Hello Bry,

Were these Beginner docs not clear enough?

    http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Beginners_Guide


Btw, it's important you state what you're using:

    - Which Chirp version you're using
    - what OS and version you're using
    - Does your OS recognize the serial port (physical, USB-based, etc)
