Description

Hi,

I'm able to download the configuration from the BTech UV-2501+220 radio using CHIRP-daily (current as of 20160507) under Windows 10, but it fails with "An error has occurred" / "Invalid header for bloxk 0x000:" using Linux Mint.

Salient points:

  • FTDI data cable obtained from BTech
  • /dev/ttyUSB0 in Linux (read-write permissions fine); COM3 in Windows

This is still a work in progress. I have to try several times (usually 3 or 4 does it) to get a successful download with Linux Mint 17.3.

I've tried several times (about 15) on two different USB ports on the machine (under Linux) with the same result.

Windows, on the other hand, has been fine every time (3 reads, two writes). So (so far at least) I have 100% consistency.
