Description

I am having difficulty connecting with my Yaesu FT7900R.
Using current daily build of CHIRP 20150702
Cable is a genuine FTDI with driver V. 2.12.0.0 installed

Send to radio:
Start CHIRP and load my .img file
Put the radio into RX mode
Send to COM port 7 (verified in Device Manager)
Upload to radio returns error: "Radio did not ACK Block at 0"

Receive from Radio:
Put radio in TX mode
Receive from COM port 7
CHIRP returns receive error: "Failed to communicate with radio: Failed to read header (0)

This radio did program once or twice with a flakey Chinese cable but it stopped working so I ordered a new genuine FTDI cable which behaves exactly the same as the old one.

I have attached my image file and the error log file.

Further to above:
Using the FTB7900 software from G4HFQ: This works just fine with the FTDI cable. In read from radio at least.

Have you been able to resolve this on your own since you submitted this?
Have you tried with a recent version since you submitted this?
If you haven't, and if you're still having this issue, please refer to the Wiki "How To Report Issues" and provide a fresh debug log (the attached one didn't tell much). Thanks!

No more feedback by submitter. - Since even a good-quality FTDI cable doesn't work anymore, this could be caused by either a configuration issue with the radio or a physically broken connector on the radio (I had that with an FT-2800).
