<br>
Were these Beginner docs not clear enough?<br>

Btw, it's important you state what you're using:<br>
<br>
- Which Chirp version you're using<br>
- what OS and version you're using<br>
- Does your OS recognize the serial port (physical, USB-based,
etc)<br>

<pre wrap="">I am trying again to get the CHIRP program to work with my Icom T70 and it Is NOT obvious.
I have a nice FTDI from Mark Dunkle. KJ6ZWL. I have spoken with Mark and we ar enboth
mystified as to why this doesn't work.
I got as far as to make it stop SCANNING all the time when I plug the cable in. I follow the
key presses to get the radio ino CLONING mode. I set it to "CL out." Then I try to "read" the
radio into Chirp.
The only thing I can see to do in CHIRP is to click on "RADIO" and then "DOWNLOAD
FROM RADIO."
Is there something else I should be doing? I jhave been trying this since January and just
haven't had time to fool with it soince it is such a bad time-wasting failure.
I wish people would either supply instructiuons with Chirp or make it so that ist is a bit more
obvious and user friendly!
I will now try downloading the latest version and see if that helps. I am on version 0.4.1</pre>
