Since the OS is Xubuntu Linux, if this works with your programming cable and Windows or OS X doesn't work, you have at least determined the problem is not your programming cable or CHIRP.<br>

This trips up a lot of owners of the UV-5R (and variants like the GT-3).<br><br><a href="http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_ErrorMess.php#error1">http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_ErrorMess.php#error1</a><br>
