| Having lost my original USB programming lead I purchased another from fleabay..... Damn thing didn't work! More than annoying. However, I came across this article:- DIY Programming lead Couple of quid for the board, wired up some Jacks and it works perfectly!  (On an Intek KT-980HP) Thought it might come in handy for anyone else. I since found my old lead...typical, and that works fine but still handy having a DIY version as it can be rewired for a number of radios. The 'new' fleabay lead that doesn't work has since been cut open only to find there is no interface board whatsoever! Just straight wired so was never going to work! Just a cautionary tale, my lesson is learnt. | |

| I made that lead up with a CP2102 from Aliexpress. Can program anything and drivers not getting blocked by Windows 10.  | |
