    Finally a cable that just works
  

*by J***O on Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2022*

Plugged up my VX-5R and opened up chirp on Linux, and I had my radio loaded up with repeaters in about 2 minutes. I had been searching for a cable to use with my HT for a long time, and I'm glad I finally came across this one. Its a bit pricey, but I'd gladly pay the price again as I had tested about 4 other brand cables that didn't even approach workable.

    Easy as pie using Linux Mint and CHIRP programming my VX-5
  

*by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2018*

Call me late to the computer programming party but I just bought this cable for my 15+ year old Yaesu VX-5. After having the pleasure of using CHIRP to program my Chinese UV-5 and UV-5x3 is was about time to do the same for the VX-5. Since this uses the same FTDI chip that my other cable uses I was sure it would work without issue, and it does. I'm using Linux Mint and CHIRP, no drivers or configuration needed, just choose the radio and /dev/ttyUSB0 and you're off to the races. This is if you know how to correctly set the VX-5 into clone mode prior to sending/receiving from CHIRP. Here's how to do it. Use these steps in order: In CHIRP go to "Radio" > "Download from radio". Vendor is Yaesu and model is VX-5, don't click OK yet. Power on the VX-5 by holding both the FW and power button at the same time, "Clone" will be displayed. Press the "OK" button in CHIRP then press the VFO button on the VX-5. It should now be sending the data to CHIRP. Once completed edit the memory banks and channels in CHIRP. When you're ready to reprogram your VX-5 choose "Radio" > "Upload to radio", don't click "OK" yet. Set your VX-5 into clone mode again with the steps above but this time press the MR button. It should now display "Clone Wait". Press "OK" in CHIRP and your edited memories will load. That's about all there is too it.One caveat to using CHIRP and the VX-5, there's no advanced configuration that can be done other than modifying memory channels and banks, unlike you can change just about everything for the UV-5 and UV-5x3. After programming the frequencies I wanted in my VX-5 I searched for and downloaded VX5 Commander (which is free) and run it in a Windows XP virtual machine using VirtualBox. This allows me to clone the new frequencies into the VX5 Commander format and also have the ability to change many of the other settings found in the VX5.Hope this helps

    It works
  

*by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2022*

I have been struggling with a cable with a Prolific chip in it.  It would download from the radio, but only upload about 10% of the time.  I connected this cable up. downloaded from the radio, made my changes, and upload them on the first try.It is not cheap, but it works.
