Bug #6815
closedYaesu ft 60 wont download on windows chirp
0%
Description
I have no problem uploading to chirp with my Yaesu ft 60, but when I try to download the exact same file 2 seconds later, the error message is "failed to communicate with the radio, radio did not respond"...Before you say anything...yes I did the "mono" button and all that good stuff. I am confused why it will upload but not download. I did it back to back without any changes to make sure it wasn't something I was doing. I even sent off and got a new data cable that is prolific p2302 chip....What do I need to do now? Greg Ellis KF5OAS jgellis15@aol.com

This isn't a Chirp bug, nor a Feature or New Model request.
This is a question best asked on the "mailing list":http://intrepid.danplanet.com/mailman/listinfo/chirp_users.
You might get (much) quicker feedback there.
Having said that: This looks like a cable / driver / connector issue. Please refer to these Wiki articles:
CableGuide
CableGuide FTDI OEM Cables
[RTSystemsCablesAndMavericks]
If there's no solution to be found in any of them, please read: How To Report Issues and provide a debug log. Thank you!
Windows notes: If you are using a generic cable with a Prolific chip, you will very likely need to downgrade your driver to version 3.2.0.0.
It can be found at http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php
MacOS notes: this OS is apparently very picky about USB to Serial cables. From what I heard, only (genuine) FTDI-based cables can be made work.
You must have the KK7DS Python runtime for Mac OSX installed.
Linux notes: Linux generally is quite good with USB to Serial converter drivers.
