[chirp_users] UV-5R Says "Radio did not respond"
by Richard Dillman 03 Jan '15

03 Jan '15

I'm in a bit of a quandary. I volunteered to program a friend's UV-5R using Chirp, which works a treat with my UV-5RA. However when I try to download from the UV-5R Chirp complains that the radio did not respond. Since all is well with my own UV-5RA I assume the software/driver/cable are not an issue. I'm using Chirp Daily Build 20150102. All guidance will be much appreciated... especially since I promised to deliver the radio tomorrow!

This means the problem is that you >are not getting the plug fully engaged in the radio. > >Jim KC9HI Hi Jim. You are always quick to respond with helpful advice. Thanks! Yeah, I encountered that plug seating issue with my own UV-5RA so with the UV-5R radio I really put some pressure on the connector - even trimmed the plug. But no joy. So maybe a defective connector on the radio side.

[chirp_users] Wrong data saved on pofung uv-5r
by clifton meager 27 Dec '14

27 Dec '14

When I program the tone frequency for rec. and tone type it saves as 88.5 (programmed as 203.5) and TSQL rather than tone. This happens on ch. 2. I have tone programmed only on ch. 1 and 2. None for ch. 3 and 4. The tone freq . shows correct for all transmit entries. Cliff
