I have verified that the cable is<br class="">recognized, but when I try to download from the radio, even with the<br class="">correct radio (UV-5RV2+) and port (/dev/cu.usbserial), it simply hangs and<br class="">says that the radio did not respond. All of the software works great on my<br class="">PC, but I have been trying to get the Mac version to work for a long time<br class="">with no luck. I have scanned countless forums and mail lists, but I have<br class="">yet to find a solution. The cable I have is a Baofeng cable (it says<br class="">Baofeng right on it), so I assume that this is not a cheap junk cable. I<br class="">have attached the debug log below.

However, unless your cable is a _real_ FTDI cable, you are likely going to run into driver issues. MacOS includes drivers for FTDI. No additional driver downloads necessary. (Also check that the volume on your HT is loud and K-plug is firmly seated). One of my Baofengs required a little pocket knife work on the moulded K-plug before it would fully seat. <br class=""><br class="">/CB<br class="">KE4QBW<br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class=""></div></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
