Re: Confused RE: How to re-image the Quadra
I am afraid I am not aware of that. I do know that my cable works with Chirp on Windows 10, so the issue is with finding the right driver (and proper install) to work.

Re: Confused RE: How to re-image the Quadra
Andrew, I trust you are aware of the FTDI chip and cabe scandal / fiasco of several years back. As I recall from those times of trouble, only Kenwood-branded cables could be relied upon to work

Re: Confused RE: How to re-image the Quadra
Terry, Glad you figured it out. This initial image is only a *beta*. It comes with its own shortcomings and pitfalls. I literally built it as an (almost) all-nighter. I'm surprised it functions as

Re: DXSpider

That poster was misinformed. However, I do not know much about DXSpyder.... It is a very old program, but one which looks like it still works well -- as long as one knows what they're doing with it.
