Description

I was programming 7 BF-888S radios today and two gave an error that the radio was not responding. The other five programmed without any issues. I was using a cable with a Silicon Labs chipset that never gives me any issues. I tried other chipset cables and got the same result, both uploading to the radio and downloading the radios.

I found that if I kept trying to upload or download, the process would eventually work. Sometimes it took four times, other times twelve times (no set number of retries). Doing this, I could upload or download.

The attached Debug Log shows two failed attempts.

No data to display
