HI,

I purchased a Baofeng model UV-8HX. I do NOT see it listed among the rigs you support. This is a brand new Baofeng model. When will I be able to use Chirp to program it?

Hi Mike,

After a quick google search it appears that the UV-8HX is just another BF-F8HP variant.

CHIRP will probably support it as soon as you select "BF-F8HP" as the model in a recent CHIRP daily build. Let us know if it does so it can be added to the growing list of BF-F8HP variants.

This sounds like a usage question, which means it is offtopic for this list and should be asked on chirp_users.

Unless the end goal is you writing the code for such a missing driver, it belongs on the users list :)

Thanks!
