I had exactly the same problem and was told to look at the how the
programming plug fits into the radio.  If the plug binds on the case, it is
not seating properly, which is just what happened with me.  If you get a
couple of short patch cables ( female to male ) that will plug into the
sockets in the radio and connect to the plug, you will likely have a lot
more success.
