Description
I was attempting to program my new Yaesu FT-7900R, I had problems there so I went back to a previously working Wouxun KG-UV3D that uses the same Prolific 2303 (version 3.0) USB cable (well, different connector). I want to get what was working working again before I start troubleshooting the 7900, plus this is portable, easier than my trunk. :)
The previously readable/programmable Wouxun is throwing a failure to communicate, can't talk to this model/cable. I've tried the 2.2 release as well as the daily-7-14-2012 versions, though primary version I've been playing with is the daily-7-24-2012.
This is a new computer for me, and I'm now using the Python Runtime instead of my prior macport setup. I am using the 1.4.0 Prolific 2303 driver for MacOSX from late last year. My new MacOSX 10.7.4, 11" MacBook Air has USB 3.0, I've also tried the USB 2.0 only ports on my Thunderbolt 27" monitor.
I've attached the debug.log, but here I believe is the pertinent piece:
96 RadioError: Failed to communicate with radio: I can't talk to this model (000: 08 05 0b 15 0a 15 18 15 ........
97 008: 1d 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ........
Any direction would be great. Filed a bug instead of user list just in case someone else got the same error string so they could find it. Really need some better listserv searching.
