<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal">THANKS Chirp developers!</div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal">In the past few days, I have programmed 4 Baofeng UV5R
radios of various vintage, a Kenwood TH-F6, a Yaesu VX-8GR, and Wouxun KG-UV8D
and KG-UVD1P radios using Chirp latest daily build. (20150702).</div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal">I found 4 generic programming cables in my programming box,
all apparently Prolific chipped or clones, all worked. All the cable chips were
identified as Prolific by Windows or by Linux.</div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal">I have used Windows 7 on an Asus laptop, Windows 7 running
in Virtual Box on a MacBook Pro, Kubuntu running in Virtual Box on the MacBook
Pro, and Ubuntu 14.04 running on an HP Spirit 13 (I dumped Win 8) to do the
programming. Chirp just worked on all of that hardware and different operating
systems. I briefly tried to get Chirp going native on the MacBook Pro, but
didn’t spend the time as Chirp was working great on the Mac in
Virtual Box.</div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal">Things I learned: plug in the programming cable after
Chirp is running; and you have to find the correct port that the programming
cable is on. </div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal">Chirp just works!!!</div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal"> </div>
<div class="yiv1090412496MsoNormal">THANKS! THANKS!! THANKS!!!</div>
