Hi Bennie,<br>
<br>
You won't be selecting a USB port. The programming cable has a chip<br>
inside, that when used with a compatible device driver, creates a<br>
virtual serial port which is required for CHIRP (or any programming<br>
software) to communicate with the radio.<br>
<br>
Usually when the programming cable does not automatically show up in<br>
Device Manager under Ports (COM & LPT), it is because the chip in the<br>
cable is an unauthorized copy of a Prolific and the device driver<br>
automatically install by Windows is incompatible. When this is the<br>
case you must download, install and select an older, but compatible,<br>
device driver for it to work properly. Instructions for determining<br>
this and how to install and select the older device driver can be<br>
