Brand new 97S and cable from myGMRS. Windows 10 system. Plug programming cable into USB port (have tried USB 2 and 3). Windows device manager sees port.
Software Version ... RT97 Program Software Ver 1.05 Date 3/3/2019
Start RT97 programming software ... RT97.exe. Attempt to set Com Port ... port is grayed out. Tried multiple usb slots. Tried updating driver, have current version. Have disabled/enabled Com port, have rebooted system, have tried to run RT97.exe as admin. NO JOY. Port remains greyed out in list.
Started my exe for a UV5G ... it finds Com4 no problem. I have also force the comm port number from 4 to 9 and 4 to 2 .... no joy.
Would appreciate any pointers or experiences you may have had with similar problems. Sigh.
