<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Greetings:<br><br> I don't have any ICOM experience, but I know that with my Yaseu I have to push the PTT switch to send the radio info to CHIRP. I then have to push the MONITOR switch to allow CHIRP to load back into the radio. This flumoxed me for a while, as my Baofeng just sits there and communicates directly from the CHIRP commands.<br><br> Hope this is helpful.<br><br>Good day,<br> Marty Braun<br> KC3AID<br><br><div>> From: chirp_users-request@intrepid.danplanet.com<br>> Subject: chirp_users Digest, Vol 55, Issue 36<br>> To: chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com<br>> Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2013 21:14:52 -0700<br>> <br>> Send chirp_users mailing list submissions to<br>> chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com<br>> <br>> To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit<br>> http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users<br>> or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to<br>> chirp_users-request@intrepid.danplanet.com<br>> <br>> You can reach the person managing the list at<br>> chirp_users-owner@intrepid.danplanet.com<br>> <br>> When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific<br>> than "Re: Contents of chirp_users digest..."<br>> <br>> <br>> Today's Topics:<br>> <br>> 1.

This is how the Chirp bootable CD is set up,<br>> because it's a CD and not writable. When you created that bootable<br>> thumb drive, maybe you accidentally configured it as a read-only<br>> bootable CD.<br>> <br>> Tom KD7LXL<br>> <br>> <br>> ------------------------------<br>> <br>> Message: 5<br>> Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2013 16:44:17 -0700<br>> From: Robert Gendreau <rob.gendreau@gmail.com><br>> Subject: Re: [chirp_users] Icom T70 to MacBook not communicating<br>> To: Discussion of CHIRP <chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com><br>> Message-ID: <7E100532-0E44-4743-BFB8-2F21756AC0FA@gmail.com><br>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii<br>> <br>> I'd try deleting the drivers and starting again; go to either the FTDI or Prolific websites for instructions. Generally you'll probably have to use Terminal to manually remove the existing drivers. Both sites have instructions for this IIRC.<br>> <br>> Rob<br>> On Jul 27, 2013, at 5:12 PM, Vincent Burolla <vburoll1@rochester.rr.com> wrote:<br>> <br>> > I tried uploading data from my Icom HT to my MacBook and I still get the "Failed to communicate with the radio: Unexpected response from radio." message.
