The firmware message 1 is HNR5RV01 Message 2 is 1FB297 If I go to a ham repeater and hit the star to reverse frequency it will allow me to change to any channel and transmit and the R stays at the top of the screen.
Unfortunately the HN5RV01... firmware has been the worst firmware release I have seen from Baofeng since the UV-5R was originally brought to market in late 2011/early 2012. I think I have a radio around here somewhere with that firmware version. I may give it a try. In any case, that is the way the hardware works and there is nothing CHIRP can do to overcome it.
