Hi Dennis,

Assuming that this programming cable works fine for the UV-82C, the
most likely cause of this error is that the connection between the
2-pin plug of the programming cable and speaker/mic socket of the
RH-5R is not fully made. You may have to put pressure on the plug
toward the socket during the cloning process.
