Rotate the DIAL job on each radio to select to ?F8 CLONE,?<br> then press the [F/W] key momentarily.<br> 5. The display will disappear for a moment, then the ?CLONE?<br> notation will appear on the displays of both radios when the<br> Clone mode is successfully activated in this step.<br> 6. (don't do this!!!) On the Destination radio, press the MONI switch<br> (?--RX- -? will appear on the LCD).<br> 7. Press the PTT switch on the Source radio; ?- -TX- -? will appear<br> on the Source radio, and the data from this radio will be transferred to<br> the other radio<br><br> In a similar way when you'll have to "save" to FT60 you have to put the<br> radio in clone rx following the same procedure as above but doing step 6<br> and not step 7 before to start chirp upload.<br><br> Hope this can help<br><br> 73 de IZ3GME Marco<br><br><br> On 13/12/2012 00:15, WN6WJN - - Wassim wrote:<br> > Thanks Fred<br> ><br> > OK some more information.<br> ><br> > I have CHIRP Version 0.2.3 installed on a Windows 7 64bit machine.<br> ><br> > I have the RT Systems USB cable for the FT60-R and an aftermarket USB<br> > cable for the UV-5R.<br> ><br> > I have installed the drivers for both above cables and verified the COM<br> > Port they are using.
