I did try Chirp and the BF-888, but I got a radio mismatch error (or something like that). I'm not near the computer at the moment.
Chirp does a hard check to make sure it is the radio it thinks it is.

Yes. But if the memory layout and settings are the same, the 'check' can be added to the driver. The driver for the UV-5R also supports the F-11 and UV-82 in a similar fashion.
