Hello Chirp list,
Picked up a Baofeng A58S tri-band 144/220/430. There seem to a be a few variations of these tri-banders for sale in UK at present. Using CHIRP daily-20190829 which works with my other Baofeng radios.
I am unable to get any of the Baofeng models to read the radio, I either get "Error reading data from radio: not the amount of data we want." or "Error reading data from radio". Are these models new and currently unsupported or is there something else I should be looking at?
Thanks, Nick.
Hi Nick,
Sounds like you are using BTech/UV-5X3 as the Vendor/Model selections. That would be for the BTech model only.
You should be using Radioddity/UV-5RX3 as the Vendor/Model selections.
Hi Jim,
Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately neither of those models work.
BTech/UV-5X3 = "Error reading data from radio: not the amount of data we want."
Radioddity/UV-5RX3 = "Radio did not respond"
Nick.
