Thanks for the offer!
I dug through my box of adapters and found a different RS-232 adapter
... when I plug this one in, the Mac properly recognizes it as a serial
port, and I've managed to program my UV-82C!
I guess the small purple-cased adapters that I got from pFranc many
years ago use a chipset that the Mac doesn't really like. I don't mind,
as long as I've got something that works.

I’ve been using a Mac for many, many years; now I buy inexpensive
transceivers and get great satisfaction from finding and using each
radio’s software or finding a CHIRP setting that works.
I have 3 cables that I use for k-type interfaces; an FTDI version, a
standard Baofeng cable and a multi plug. Interestingly there are
radios that will only work with 1 type of cable … I have specific
interface cables with C-type, 3.5mm, micro & mini USB.
If any of my software, cables or experience could help you please let
me know.
Kind Regards
