<div>Jack and I are seeing the same thing. We don't have the right software
for the right radio. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I know 100% in my case that the computer, ports and cable are
functional. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Boafeng own software has language localization issues. The software
loads but all the icons are full of question marks. .???</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The failure is that the program tries to talk to the radio and the radio
does not respond, so it times out. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Sorry for the bandwidth on the chirp reflector, but this was the best
collection of these type of users I know. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Sadly there is no BF-v6 listed on their download site. </div>
