[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-83 com port issue

Yes!  You did it!  The prompts were not exactly as illustrated, but close
enough that I was able to navigate thru to the desired outcome.  

 

Thanks,

LL

Larry,
It sounds like you have the same windows issue as Bill (in the last post)
:- )

As a courtesy to users, Windows 10 updates drivers to the latest version.

Unfortunately, this is not what you want with a Prolific cable.

The drivers you need (3.2.0.0) can be found at
http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php

Also, the driver does not follow the cable. If you change USB slots, you
must also load 3.2.0.0 to the new COM port.

 

That along with the Latest Daily Build of CHIRP and you should be up and
running.

CHIRP was working until today's software upgrade.  I uninstalled and
reinstalled once I could not clear the error.

 

When attempting to "Upload from radio" the pop-up box appears correctly
confirming COM port, vendor and model.  After selecting OK, 

 

Then "error #2" pops up "could not open port COM3. The system cannot find
the file requested."

 

Windows 10 - Device Mgr tells me that COM3 is set for the Prolific
USB-to-Serial.  Under General, "This device cannot start (Code 10). A device
which does not exist was specified.  Prolific driver is 9/4/2015, version
3.6.81.357

Events: 

 

 

Any simple fix???
