I could actually use some help to verify some unknown aspects from several radios of this and similar brands.
If you, or anyone else, are so inclined: 1. install free serial port monitor: http://www.serial-port-monitor.com/free-serial-port-monitor-downloads.html 2. setup session to capture your com port, looking at "Request view" 3. open up your programming software and perform 3 functions: a. read firmware b. download from radio c. upload (same image) back to radio 4. export the session log from request view of serial port monitor. (right click on request view pane, export, as htm) 5. attach to aforementioned bug ticket
May help me determine any differences between units (such as firmware version, id strings, etc), and other similar units with different manufacturers (i.e., HYS TC-UV55).

Thanks for the confirmation. If it saves someone some time not having to experiment on a lost cause then so be it. I did a little data mining one day and was astounded that there were so many brands out there that seemed to share firmware with their own minor adjustments. I myself own two Wouxun and one Baofeng and two Anytone 5888UV radios. I've put the Yaesus away for now, maybe to go into a time capsule one day.

AFAIK, there is no support yet for it.
There is an open bug ticket for adding support for this radio (and possibly HYS TC-UV55): http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/1201
I have just recently begun attacking this one.

If you have a cord and Chirp can actually read the radio's blank template and settings, you might stand a fighting chance on using Chirp. I'd try all the 6 radios under Baofeng that are in the Daily Build. If you get one that will read you might get lucky but I wouldn't bake the cake and put up the party streamers just yet until you can successfully upload a modified template back to the radio and not end up with a radio that you could only use for a paperweight.

Hello,
Before I try to see if Chirp can program my new Baojie BJ-UV55 I thought I would ask if anyone has been able to program one?
I don't see it listed as a supported radio, I have heard that it is very much like the Baofeng radios.
