[chirp_users] com port driver issues with uv-82
by Dale Scott 25 Jun '15

25 Jun '15

Hi, I am hoping someone can help. I have a Baofeng UV5 which I got to work perfect with chirp. I ordered a UV82 and can not get it to communicate to chirp. I have downloaded the latest version of chirp, tried going back to a older com port driver and no success. I am running win8 / 64 bit and using driver version 3.6.78.350 which is supposed to be the latest driver. When I try to download from the new uv82 I keep getting error has occurred, could not open port com3: {error 2} the system can not find the file specified.I have the true baofeng usb cable.My original goal is to clone or export my channels from the uv5 to the new uv82 but without connecting to chirp I am lost. I have spent numerous hours trying to search for a fix to no avail.Please help ! Thanks

[chirp_users] BF-F8HP Programming "B" Channels
by Jeff Lenkowski 24 Jun '15

I just got the radio and finally got CHIRP working on my Mac (drivers for cable – duh)… I’m trying to figure out how to program the A level and B level with different frequencies, but after reaching the end of the Internet via Google looking for the answer, I’m completely stumped. Could someone please let me know where in CHIRP the setting is located?? Thanks in advance!!

[chirp_users] Two Baofeng UV-5R radios but only one works with CHIRP
by Jay Planalp 23 Jun '15

Hello - I am a new CHIRP user and have two Baofeng UV-5R radios. I was able to get CHIRP to communicate with one radio and uploaded some memory channels. However, when I tried the second radio, I got an error message "The upload was stopped because the firmware of the image (Ver BFB297) does not match that of the radio (BFB299 BFB297). However, when I power on the radios holding the 3 key down, I see that the firmware version of both is the same - BFB297. How do I resolve this??? Thanks.

Re: [chirp_users] 'Radio did not respond' (UV-82)

Hi all, to John, Maybe wise to add to the http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_ErrorMess.php page. with the uv-82 giving this message. It needs to be on the A-channel and I've had the best results when in "frequency-mode", channel-mode sometimes just doesn't work. 73 Bert

[chirp_users] 'Radio did not respond' error
by Kristopher Arens 23 Jun '15

23 Jun '15

First of all, I wanted to send my greetings to the e-mail list, as I am something of a novice to newer radio technology. I have a Baofeng UV-5R, I am running Ubuntu 15.10, a USB programming cable, and the latest daily build of CHIRP for Linux systems. When I follow the on screen instructions for CHIRP, after attempting to connect to my radio, the software comes back with a 'Radio did not respond.' error. Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong? If more information is needed in my situation, feel free to ask. Kristopher Arens KC7VWQ
