[chirp_users] FT-70D Port for Mac

[Lawrence Underwood]

Thank you.  What is really odd is that it worked once after I installed the FTDI driver on my Mac.  I cloned the radio and was able to work with it. Later I realized that I had forgotten to put some repeaters on that I needed. This time when I connected the radio it will not work again. It’s doing the exact same thing as before.  I can only see the Bluetooth port.    Any ideas on what may be going on?
