[chirp_users] Unable to read/write Wouxon KG-UV8D

[David Vine]

My pofung GT-5 was purchased with a USB programming cable that has the
Baofeng name on it.

I'm trying to use chirp to load a .csv file but can't seem to make a
connect to the radio.

When the cable is plugged into a USB port on my Windows 10 machine should
it register itself in the "This PC" list of attached USB devices?

The attached PDF has screen shots. Can anyone interpret these for me and/or
help me with my problem?

Thanks!

DV

PS I have read the FAQs, CHIRP documentation, Amazon (bought the cable
there) sellers questions and comments and Prolific information but still
can't make heads or tails with this problem.

Double-thanks in advance.

David Vine
