I have one of these portable radios and while cloning it "Clone NG" appeared on the screen and stopped the process. How do I fix this?

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

Moved to the Commercial ICOM forum. Please take an extra minute to continue looking over forum titles. Thanks.

Ok - so I tried connecting my radio and cable to another computer and the difference in speed was just enough to matter and I was able to connect, pull down the current program (even though it was corrupted) create a new program with just one channel and changed the startup text to TEST and write to the radio.
Then I moved the radio back over to my computer, turned the programming speed down from High to Normal (I hadn't even noticed the setting previously) and was then able to successfully push the program up to the radio and all's good now.
If you run into a problem, you might want to try a different PC. Apparently the slight variations in USB speeds and Bus Controller types has an impact on the programming process. You might also want to check the communications speed and slow it down if possible for your model radio and software.

Yes just turned down the baud rate in the port device and she worked like a charm.
Weird, only gave this clone ng error on one of 10 icom ic f221 ic f121 radios.
PS I am running a very modern win 7 computer with a usb to serial adapter cable then a serial to rj45 cable
