I have tried to program the UV-5R with Chirp and finally find out that I had to use a different model number to be able to even get the radio to upload to computer. I have added all my channels to the radio and downloaded to radio thinking that everything is fix. I can key the HT and it don't key the repeater. If I have it on channel mode, it shows both +- above the frequency display. It will drop the frequency down 0.600 like it suppose to. Ok if I have it on frequency mode , it shows - and drops down the 0.600 as its suppose to. Still don't key the repeater. I have a Baofeng UV-3 and it keys the repeater, I have a Yaesu FT-250 and it keys the repeater. I'm at my wits end on trying to get this HT program. If someone can please tell me what to do I will really appreciate it.

Hi Danny,
These radios do not use offsets in memory channels. The RX and TX frequency is programmed instead. So having the upper status display indicate "+-" is normal when the TX frequency differs from the RX frequency (repeater, odd-split, cross band and TX inhibited channels).
Email your CHIRP Radio Image (*.img) file to me and I will take a look at it.
