[chirp_users] Unable to read UV-2501

[Glenn]

I would try to delete it from device manager, and restart your computer.
Windows should find the driver if you have installed it.

Yes Jim, and Brent, I've already gone through the yellow flag thing.
Loaded the older Prolific drvr to work with my obvious knock-off cable.
I may eventually resort to ordering an FTDI cable, not ruling that out.
But right now, I have hard time believing the cable is the problem as
long as I have a driver that works with it.

I'm thinking the manufacturer has changed the radio firmware slightly as
they are prone to do, and once again Chirp will have to be tweaked to
match the "magic string".  But they will have to wait for others to
provide log data since I can't even get my radio to work with the
manufacturer's programming software.

I was hoping some of the Chirp developers monitor this forum and will
chime in with suggestions.
