Hi David and All,
I read in a message recently, from Dan I believe, that Chirp now shows the port 
it's using.
I think it is in download from radio, under help.
That is what I remember, I haven't needed to look for it yet, but I do remember 
him posting that.

  Rich,
  How are COM Ports tested in Linux?  I know in Windows, Device Manager can be 
used.


  Thanks,
  David

    Check comm ports. Usually 3 or 4. Should show the chip in your cable.

        Hi John, 
        Might the tuned frequency be receiving traffic while you are connected? 
          If so, make sure it's on a quiet channel. 
          HTH.

          I get "Error reading data from radio"  I'm using this cable: 
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017MT7IFG  It is plugged in all the way! 



          I cannot find a debug.log  There is no option for one in my CHIRP  
(CHIRP next-20230712 on Python 3.8.10 wxPython 4.0.7 gtk3 (phoenix) wxWidgets 
3.0.4)  And none is created in ~/.chirp  While CHIRP is still running: 


          joliver@blinky:~$ ls .chirp/ 
          chirp.config  stock_configs 


          In the terminal I launched CHIRP: 

          joliver@blinky:~$ ./.local/bin/chirp 
          02:52:04 PM: Debug: Unrecognized accel key 'backspace', accel string
