Description

This is my first time attempting to program a Baofeng BF-F8HP radio using Chirp Legacy and Chirp Next using the supplied FTDI cable. I keep running into error: Error communicating with radio. Radio did not respond.

I am currently running OSX Ventura: 13.2.1 on a MacBook Pro with the M1 Max chip. So far I have done the following...

  • Installed and tested Chirp legacy. (Produces same error)

  • Upgraded to Chirp Next (CHIRP next-20230322 on Python 3.8.2 wxPython 4.2.0 osx-cocoa (phoenix) wxWidgets 3.2.0)

  • Installed FTDI Chip drivers

  • FTDIUSBSerialDextInstaller_1_5_0

  • FTDIUSBSerialDriver_v2_3

  • Ran USB port finder (Screenshot A)

  • Identified com port as: /dev/cu.usbserial-AB0LASYI (Screenshot B).

  • Repeated attempts with additional com ports suggested in (Screenshot B).

All attempts return "Error communicating with radio. Radio did not respond". (Screenshot C).

Screens/debug log attached...

Thanks!

Gary
