CHIRP

I am not sure what is going on. I have downloaded, chirp so that, I can program my Leixen, VV898s. S/N:160115B1626with a ID as followed: 2AC2Z898UV.I have followed the directions, that say you must first read from radio. I have done just that and, I have loaded up the frequency's, that I want to write to the radio. Now I have, set-up the input frequency's which are the input and output. Every time I go to, hit the read to radio. it is never highlighted as is the read from the radio. Now I have programed many radios but this one, is a royal pain in the butt. I did my TYT quad band TH-9800R without, any problems. I have tried to, program the radio without the Chrip program and cable without, any luck. I can get, one of our clubs frequency's in but it does not allow it to be saved. Every time I try to, I get a pop-up saying that this function is not accepted. If, anyone else has had this problem and, has been able to fix it, please send me the directions or, the web site/page with the directions.

Many Thanks,

Although the dual power 10W VV898 is supported by CHIRP, the tri-power 25W VV898S is not.
Testing shows there are several differences between the two versions that CHIRP still needs to address.

As for manual programming, refer to the Miklor.com website.

I hope this assists.
