SainSONIC GT-890 - Radio Identification Failed
Added by Dennis Zabawa about 7 years ago.
Updated almost 7 years ago.
Description
The error message "Radio identification failed" appears when attempting to read from radio. The cable used, supplied with the radio, works successfully with the programming software supplied "UV2BAND_E_CPS.exe". After the error message appears, the radio beeps and resets. This occurs on two different radios.

Hi Dennis,
All the clues points that you have a unknown (to us) variant of this radios, it has a different ID from what we already have detected, we need a serial capture to process it.
You can find how to do that here: http://chirp.danplanet.com/attachments/2257/how%20to%20portmon.doc
I need that captures to make the support for this radio into Chirp, since I don't have the radio at hand.
Clue: it may work selecting it as the QYT KT8900, as this appears to be a clone of it, can you confirm this?

Both radios successfully programs as a QYT KT8900 with WIN7, using two different, 64 bit machines and CHIRP daily-20160504.
They will not program as a QYT KT8900 on an XP Pro, Service Pack 3, machine and CHIRP daily-20160504. The error message is "Invalid header for block0x0000:". If the XP machine is used and the radio is selected as a SainSonic GT890, the "Radio identification failed" error occurs. The same programming cable is used on all computers.
I have no other Windows computers with a 32 bit operating system.

Hi Dennis,
Please try this dev version and report back (see link below)
I don't have the radio so I need you to test is before push it to the tree.
