[chirp_users] Patch for TYT TH -UV88
by Tim Duffy 05 Feb '20

05 Feb '20

I have a TYT TH-UV88 coming to me in a couple days and see that it's not supported by chirp. The seller's website says that it is essentially a 'ruggedized' Baofeng UV-5r. Has has anyone found a workaround for the TYT? Thanks in advance, Tim Duffy

Hi, I bought Baofeng BF-V9 (which should be updated version of BF-888s), and I am trying to program it with Chirp (under Linux). Unfortunately, I cannot select correct model from Chirp menu. I tried some other models, but Chirp cannot read from radio. Any help? Regards, Matej
