Description

Trying to download from Radio, selecting BF-F8HP model I get an error "Radio did not respond". The cable seems to be ok: to try I used also different models. With UV-5R i get same error but using GT-3WP i get "Error reading data from radio:not the amount of data we want". I used same computer, same cable to program / download from a UV-5R and it works.

With GT3 TP

This looks like a cable issue. Please refer to these Wiki articles:
CableGuide
CableGuide FTDI OEM Cables
[RTSystemsCablesAndMavericks]

I know you said that the same cable works on another Baofeng radio, so it might be a problem with the connector not going in far enough. Try pressing hard, holding it at an angle.
