[chirp_users] Error message trying to connect Yaesu FT7900R

[Nigel A. Gunn G8IFF/W8IFF]

Cable for Icom, Yaesu, Alinco, Sort of home made.

USB/RS232 adaptor commercial with genuine Prolific chip.

RS232/TTL  taken off an old PDA/calculator cable.

Connectors as required by radios provided by me.

Cable for cheap Chinese radios was commercial from Wouxon.

Cable for Kenwood mobile came from Kenwood.

OS is Linux which doesn't care where the chips come from and seems to have all the drivers alredy supplied.
