Description

I have used CHIRP for this radio before, however it has been a long time. As such, I started with a "Download from Radio". After starting the clone processes, the radio will restart and CHIRP displays the following error: "Error reading data from the radio: not the amount of data we want."

Steps to reproduce:

  • Click download from radio --- Select Port Number (/dev/cu.usbserial-110) --- Vendor: BTECH --- Model UV-5X3
  • Click OK
  • Click Yes to the "This radio's driver is experimental"
  • Click ok to the instructions
  • The clone screen shows up
  • Radio screen goes blank at about 3 seconds
  • Error message appears

I have tried the radio with daily-20220118 on both MacOS and Windows 10 (Windows 10 via. VM Ware).
I have successfully programmed 3 UV-5R and 1 FT-60 using the same MacOS and Windows 10 on dailiy-20220118.

I communicated with another Ham who was successfully able to download from their UV-5X3. I did not check their CHIRP version, however we both are using the same firmware on the radio.
