0.8ex;PADDING-LEFT:1ex" class="gmail_quote">I am able to
download the memory settings from the FT-897D with no<br>
problems. However, even if I simply try to upload the
received data (no<br>
changes) it fails with an "ERROR" message on the Ft-897D and
the upload<br>
box on CHIRP disappears immediately. This occurs using
multiple<br>
versions of CHIRP including the 03/30/2012 (chosen since
multiple<br>
posters say it works) up to the latest daily build.<br>
<br>
When I click on the CHIRP upload box on the PC screen first
and then<br>
immediately push the button marked A (upload) on the FT-897D
the radio<br>
screen displays "RECEIVING" very briefly and then displays
"ERROR". If<br>
I select button A on the radio first it immediately displays
"ERROR".<br>
<br>
I am using XP PRO with a serial port connecting to the radio.
I have<br>
verified the com port and radio is correct (it just downloaded
OK) and<br>
that the port is set to 9600 baud. The cable and connection
runs HRD<br>
and DM780 with no problems so I am assuming the cable is OK.
I suspect<br>
some arcane setting that I am unable to find.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any suggestions how I can determine the cause
of the error?<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
