Customers are highly satisfied with the cable's ability to support multiple radio models, including Baofeng and TidRadio, for programming on Windows, Mac, and Ubuntu operating systems.
Automatic Driver Installation
Most customers have positive experiences with automatic driver installation on their Windows operating system, while a few encountered issues and had to search for the correct drivers. The FTDI chip ensures compatibility with various OS.
Highlights
Quality
The cable shows high quality workmanship and materials.
This is a quality cable and worked as described.
None worked but this one first time i plugged it in.
It works on the latestest chirp build and is not the knock off.
Price
This one works perfectly at 1/3 the cost.
Now, they're down to the us$10-$12 level; cheap enough to order a backup.
Ftdi cables cost around $17-$18 a few years ago.
Shipping
It came quickly and when i plugged it in, the drivers loaded automatically.
Works great but took 3 days to receive amazon dropped the ball on this delivery wtf
Competitiveness
This worked as expected with chirp to reprogram my baofeng and other similar radios to copy frequencies.
Unlike other cords, this cord does work with mac and worked great for me.
