FWIW- my experiences with this Short Read of the Block 0x0000 issue: Had 4 Diddy DB-25G radios in front of me. Using Chirp in a Windows 10 PC, with the provided Prolific Pgm Cable, was able to READ (Upload from Radio) from only one (out of 4 radios). Massaged the codeplug file, then saved to hard drive. Then was able to Successfully upload, (SEND TO Radio), the code plug... to ALL 4 RADIOS. Closed Chirp, walked away. Re Opened Chirp, opened the saved Diddy codeplug file, and was able to upload (SEND to RADIO) the file. When using the provided Diddy DB-25G CPS software.... I was able to Read the radio, make a change, then UPload to the radio with success. The Diddy CPS software is kind of Crude. Chirp is 10x easier to do biz with, IMHO. At first I thought the provided Prolific PGM Cable was the fault, but other posts reveal that the FDTI chipset cable performed the same- using Windows 10. So, for now, I will not Amazon a new cable. BTW- the Prolific USB Programming cable does not work with Windows 11.... not plug n play- anyway. Anyone know the status of a FIX to the Cant Always Download from DB-25G issue using Chirp? FWIW....
