<div dir="ltr">Once I deleted old Chirp and reinstalled run as administrator I finally got the window to select vendor and radio (Icom 2100H) after selecting "download from radio". The port is defaulted to COM6 which is verified to be the one selected in the FTDI driver. However when I click OK, I get "An error has occurred - Failed to communicate with the radio. Unexpected response from radio". It doesn't matter if I run Chirp normally or as administrator.. same result. <div><br></div><div>I read the beginners guide.
