Excellent cable. The enclosed MAC driver worked first try on OS X. Works well on a HP PC too. Great cable for CHIRP on my BaoFeng and a Wouxon.

As with most, I had issues with the drivers for this cable. I tinkered with so many settings, downloaded so many different drivers, and tried so many different things, I'm honestly not even sure what combination resulted in a functional cable. All in all, it took me close to two hours to make the cable functional, but once it was, it does its job perfectly. Programming through CHIRP is smooth and painless at that point.

If you're not willing to tinker with settings, drivers, etc. I would advise against this cable. I'm no expert, but it did take me well over an hour to get things running. I didn't mind so much, especially for the price, but it's something to be aware of.

I received the cable quickly. The cable works and I have had no problems using it. However, the software does not work. I have Windows 7. The softare appears with a file extension of (.rar). I have never seen any executable software that uses a (.rar) extension. NOT for Windows anyway. I am still trying to find a working software online. CHIRP works. But I would like to install the Baofeng software to program things that CHIRP does not.

Overall, I am happy with the cable but not with the softare included. You better buy just a cable... then locate teh software online.

This product arrived within two days in the mail, also amazingly has its own serial number and bar code. very pleased. Windows 8 automatically installed the correct driver and its perfect. The driver disc has a ton TON of drivers for all the other radios this cable is compatible with like puxing/ wauxun and a crap ton more.

Cable is well constructed and would highly recommend for anyone wanting to make use of programming software for the UV-5R or your Wauxun.

Oh BTW, didn't try it because I already had it installed but it comes with all the software for baofeng and wauxun and a few others.

Great product. Thanks guys
