I purchased it from a national dealer at a hamfest along with the legit RT Systems Cable and software directly from the dealer. It's windows software and I'm a hardcore MAC guy. I borrowed an old XP machine from my Dad, loaded the software, unlocked the rig and did some elementary programming knowing that CHIRP also supported this model, I gave the pc back and started enjoying the radio.</div><div><br></div><div>Now that I need to reprogram the rig for new memories ect, all I have is my MAC Book Air and was hoping to use the legit cable. Well it turns out that the third and latest version of the RT systems cable apparently doesn't play nice with CHIRP. RT systems apparently did something to make the cable incompatible with third party software..</div><div><br></div><div>Since the DB750x is just a clone of the POLMAR and Anyone rigs, I bought a programming cable online for the Anyone model, hooked it up, and am able to do a preliminary download of the radio, but when I go to "open up" the channel views, CHIRP crashes whenever I try to view memory channels above #40. (I can upload the debugger log if necessary) In addition, some of the programmed channels aren't transferring over, and some of the data is actually incorrect. I have tried the POLMAR, Anyone, and the PowerWerx download options, all with the same result. </div><div><br></div><div>So now I stuck :( I like this radio for operation, but hate manually programming the channels. I'm a huge CHIRP fan and have become spoiled with how easy it is to update m other rigs. Now it looks like I am either stuck finding an XP machine, or maybe another radio. Any suggestions that the group could provide?</div><div><br></div><div>I should also mention I have tried the stable and daily build versions with the same result. There is an RT systems "Driver" available for the MAC which I have tried, but again their software is not MAC compatible.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance, and I really appreciate everyone's time!</div><div><br></div><div>Richard</div></div>
