[chirp_users] Download From Radio under Ubuntu 20.04 error

[Matthew Poletiek]

Hi Robert,

You might want to check to make sure your user has proper permissions.

In linux, typically the groups you might need for this kind of
operation include `dialout`, `usb`, and while you're at it you might
as well include `plugdev`.

The command to add your user to a group might be `sudo gpasswd -a <user> group`.

Once thats finished you might need to refresh your profile. Either try
opening CHIRP in a new terminal, or log out and log back in.
