<div dir="auto">I have a gt3tp, and my cable would not plug in deeply enough and hence I got the same problem. So I took a razor blade to the inside corner of my cable. When I plugged in afterwards there was a distinctive snap. Worked like a charm afterwards.

Hi all, I am new to the radio stuff. I would like to search the<br>
messages for an answer. I Bought a Baofeng GT-3TP for my own personal<br>
radio to use on a licensed frequency that I use for volunteer work. I<br>
am trying to program it with chirp latest nightly on Debian Linux using<br>
the BF-F8HP like it says in the wiki but no luck, I get a radio didn't<br>
respond error with a Prolific cable and an incorrect Model selected<br>
error with a ftdi cable. Is there any suggestions to fix this? It does<br>
work using the UV-5R driver but then I only have 2 power modes. My<br>
friend bough the same Gt-3TP radio and had a UV-5R previously and he is<br>
having the same problem.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
<br>
Jason<br>
