[chirp_users] COM 5

[Michael Brazier]

Hi (Sorry I couldn’t see a name on the email).

Thanks for your help Mate.  It has solved that issue and Chirp cloned my radio without any problem (had to change from COM 5 to 4).  Now I plug the UV-5RTP in and it goes to start to upload but then I get "An error has occurred - Radio did not respond.  Something in my brain is telling me I should be doing something else to prepare the radio but since my stroke the brain doesn't always work that well.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Kind regards,

Mick.

Hi All

I have had Chirp for quite a few years but don’t let that fool you, I know nothing about it.  I purchased two Baofeng UV-5R+Plus radios a while ago and a friend used Chirp to clone his radio and then to set my two up.  I have used it a few times as I have recommended the Baofeng radios to others and then I have used Chirp to clone mine and set theirs up.  I am not sure what has happened but I have updated to a Toshiba laptop, I’ve just updated that to Windows 10,  and I downloaded the latest Chirp today.  It’s been a while since I last used Chirp and a friend has just purchased two Baofeng UV-5RTP radios and asked me to set them up.  When I opened Chirp I opened my radio image file and connected the new radio.  I get a COM 5 port error and that’s it.  I tried hooking my radio up but get the same error.  Not sure whether it’s relevant but I used the same original data cable as I did for my, and others, radios.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Mick.
