Dave, first of all thanks for the quick?response.I learnt something from your message, I had never even looked at the menu listing... ?
As it turns out all the settings except 50 were correct; I changed 50 to 'off', the plug is in the right socket, and I tried again. ??
Unfortunately no luck so far, I even tried with another computer so I am still at the beating my head against?the wall state.
I discovered something really odd though.? In the listing I can edit the frequency column, but whatever I enter is not what is displayed after a carriage return, and all the same what I enter in the next line, the value is always the same as in the preceding?column.
' experience is what one gets when one does not get what one wants...'
I'll keep at it and will probably discover something really stupid as the cause.

I have two IC-7000 radios and Chirp does work.? It even works (partially) on CHIRP running on a Raspberry Pi.

A few things to check:
1.????? ?The cable needs to be plugged into the radio CI-V jack.? It is one of the 4 jacks that are in a row and it is easy to get it in the wrong one.
2.????? Menu #48 CI-V Baud Rate defaults to 9600 Baud.? This much match the settings for radio in Chirp.
3.????? Menu # 49 should be left on the default of 70h
4.????? Menu #50 should be off
5.????? Chirp must be setup with the correct COM port that matches your cable.
6.????? You must read from the radio before you try to write to it._

Most likely the problem is the radio Data Rate doesn’t match CHIRP.
