Bug #4409

Updated by Bernhard Hailer over 3 years ago

Radio in clone mode 
 Radio - -> Download from radio 
    Port /dev/ttyUSB0 
    Vender Yeasu 
    Model: FT-1802M 
    Dialog: Ok to dismiss 
    Help: Ok to dismiss 
 Press MHz button, radio says "----TX----" 
 chirp acknowledges that clone mode has started 
 progress bar shows no activity 
 radio times out and says error 

 stdout and debug.log show error message  
 : ERROR: Clone failed: Failed to communicate with the radio: Attempting to use a port that is not open:  

 This suggests an internal programming error as program was able to read from port to see I had pressed the button but then seems to have a stale file handle. 

 409shop.com 6-070 USB programming cable with interchangable adapters.    (Prolific clone) 
 409shop.com 6-081 adapter http://ww.409shop.com/409shop_product.php?id=104251 
 The usb cable has been used with many different radios with chirp 
 The adapter was ordered to program a friends FT-1802 and this is the first time used.     

 used apt to install latest chirp-daily before generating debug.log 
 CHIRP daily-20170111 on Linux - Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS (Python 2.7.6) 


 gpsd was killed before running chirp as gpsd.hotplug likes to open this cable when installed. 

 Same cable with different adapter plug was used to successfully download from a UV-5R+ while filing this bug report.
