[chirp_users] Mac IC80AD RTSytems Cable

[Brian Dickman]

Hi Chip,

"/dev/cu.usbserial-RT3P07W9" is definitely the right device. Your error
came from the python internals (and the pyserial library), and is more
about code working badly, less about the cable or having the wrong device.
Are you using CHIRP nightly or an older build?

If you are using nightly, then it's likely one of two problems:

- You have put a file called "serial.py" in your home directory (uncommon
but possible)
- You have the wrong python serial library installed

Have you ever run "pip" to install a serial library? You can try these
commands and see if it fixes things:

sudo python -m pip uninstall serial
sudo python -m pip install pyserial

I think the kk7ds runtime includes pyserial, but I don't have the package
in front of me to check. Try those commands and be sure you are running
nightly, and see if things go better.
