Hi Michael - plug the cable into the radio and computer, turn on the
radio then in a terminal window on Linux type <br>
<br>
dmesg<br>
<br>
On Linux you may need to have root privileges.<br>
<br>
At the bottom of the output you should see either a USB device - or
possibly a serial device - and the port you need to use assuming you
have the right cable.<br>
