This Kenwood's are middle in the 'complicated' classification as I see in the Chirp source code, as usual: the newer and more features, more complicated it gets.

This cable does not include any manuals or instructions for use. The internal converter circuit board (interface) mounted inside the USB shell. The power supply is done over the USB interface.

That's why we need a user to test the developer driver in to get a full Chirp image of one of this radios, to keep the development on going, by now I'm stalled there, as there are just chunks of the memory by now. This programming cable is designed for quick and easy programming of Kenwood TK-2140 handheld transceiver. The trunked package is in upwards of 2,500. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. In Chirps paradigm, the radio image must be a complete and accurate image of the memory data as possible, and the zones in the previous paragraph are used to identify the radio type, model & options when you read them from the disk. Often the Kenwood software is less than 100 so don't be a cheapskate just purchase it. So, once the OEM software reads the section for channel groups it knows at a glance the exact limits of the other chunks it must read (and write up on programming), the OEM software must do a read & interpret on the fly to make this work, and that's not fine in the Chirp's paradigm of operation (read all, then process)Д«eside, I have found that in the initial handshake the OEM software get some basic info of radio family, model and options using a special command and not by reading any memory zone, but that info is in the mem area, and in the normal operation the OEM software doesn't read those zones. Kenwood has a concept in this commercial radios of 'channels groups' (aka memory banks in ham speak) and sections/chunks in the memory space reserved for channel groups / channels freq and tone / channels name / etc. That tricks has made possible in Chirp to add a 'reverse' or 'low power' button options to some models that don't have this ones in the OEM software, and this works fine in practice. The Kenwood Programming Software (KPG) title that supports programming these radio.

Tinkering with the Kenwood's Series 60, 60G and the TK-790 to build it's Chirp's drivers I have learn that (at least for this radios) the memory space is the same no matter what firmware version you have (and that has a good logic reason behind) Windows programming software for TK-2140/TK-3140 K & M Versions.
