I submitted a post the other day looking for some help but it didn’t get posted so I am trying again.  I think I sent it from the wrong email address!

 

I had a problem trying to updoad a file to a new UV-5RE+ that a friend just bought.  I had previously used this file to program 14 other units of the same radio.  Another complication is that I had done it on an XP computer buy am now using a Windows 7 machine.

 

I got an error message that the “Settings” had not been transferred because the image number didn’t match the firmware number.  I looked in the file and found where those numbers were listed but could not change them.

 

I did eventually figure out that if I downloaded the data from the new radio to a new file, the firmware number came with it.  Then I could populate the rest of the new file with data and it uploaded with no problem.

 

Now, if this item gets posted, I will be a happy camper.

 

Best Regards,

Dennis
