[chirp_users] Kenwood TK-762H

[Tim Billingsley]

I have a couple of old Kenwood TK-762H transceivers. I see the issue on
http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/3139 but I seem to be having troubles.
When I attempt to read from the radio using TK-762G it appears to read from
the radio then dumps the error dialog *"An error has occurred: The radio
doesn't accept program mode"*


ERROR: -- Exception: --
ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/ui/clone.py", line 238, in
run
    self.__radio.sync_in()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760g.py", line
884, in sync_in
    self._mmap = do_download(self)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760g.py", line
517, in do_download
    _open_radio(radio, status)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760g.py", line
478, in _open_radio
    raise errors.RadioError("The radio doesn't accept program mode")
RadioError: The radio doesn't accept program mode

ERROR: ----------------
ERROR: Clone failed: The radio doesn't accept program mode
ERROR: --- Exception Dialog: The radio doesn't accept program mode ---
ERROR: None

ERROR: ----------------------------




If I attempt using TK-760 chirp attmpts to read and almost immediately
dumps the error dialog saying *"An error has occurred Radio refuse to enter
into program mode after a few tries"*
ERROR: ----------------------------
ERROR: -- Exception: --
