I always forget about persistence partitions on live USB drives! You can disregard most of what I said since it is probably not applicable ;)<br>

Adding your user to dialout group only takes effect after you log out and log back in which is not practical for a live environment IIRC.<br>

You can use something like the following for live environments:<br>

<div style="font-size:11pt; font-family:sans-serif; color:black; padding-bottom:0px; direction:ltr; padding-top:0px; padding-left:0px; margin:0px; padding-right:0px">
sudo -g dialout chirpw <br>

This gives the dialout group permission to chirpw program while running as the current user. But I don't see any advantage to doing that over plain "sudo chirpw" (what Jim recommended) unless you get X11/Wayland/Mir errors.<span id="x_ms-outlook-android-cursor"></span><br>

<div class="x_PlainText">I wondered about that, but I have used this computer and this Chirp program

to program other radios, but do you suppose the dialout thing needs to be <br>
run with a different cable?<br>
This is a live instance of Ubuntu and I already added Ubuntu as the user in <br>
dialout I am sure, because the CSV files for my other radios are there as <br>
well.<br>
That is what has me puzzled.<br>

Hi Glenn,<br>
<br>
>From what you are describing it sounds like you Linux user doen't have<br>
permission to access the port. Either run CHIRP as root or as your<br>
Linus user to the dialout group.<br>
<br>
I also have a Kenwood TH-F6a. CHIRP programs it in "live" mode.<br>
