The rather unhelpful term 'codeplug' originates from an EPROM based hardware key which AMTRAK train drivers inserted into a Motorola radio in the cab. This term pre-dates digital radios by decades. It is the source of much confusion, and I much prefer the term 'configuration file' which is much more descriptive and far less obfuscating.

The Baofeng UV-82 doesn't use "codeplugs" as it is an analog radio, also CHIRP isn't for digital radios, just analog.
Michal are you using the incorrect terminology, or are you talking about a different model which IS digital?

I have a Baofeng UV-82 that was programmed, I downloaded the codeplug, added a frequency then uploaded the new codeplug to the radio. When I went to turn the radio back on, there was only a faint display visible on the top line. It looks like a series of black rectangles. Doesn't go beyond that, no channel, no frequency, none of the keys respond. I tried taking the battery out and turning it back on... no help. Tried downloading front the radio... nothing. Is the radio bricked or is there something else that I can try ? tnx Mike VE7SML
