Paul,

IF you click on Chirp, then click on Radio, then Download from Radio you should get the Radio Box which contains:

Port, Vendor, Model. I found that you have to select in the PORT: /dev/cu.usbserial-AL01Gowc

Do this first and then when you go to Vendor you will get the list of Vendors and be able to select the BF-F8HP or whatever model you have.

I bought mine from Amazon and just got the QST ANNUAL PRODUCT REVIEW today and on Page 75 it gives less than a Sterling Review on these radios.

Some members of my club own 3 or 4 of them but I sent mine back to Amazon this morning.

I’m going to buy a Yaesu or a Mororola because I deserve the best.

Hi Everyone:

 

  Just wondering if anyone has encountered a problem when

trying to have Chirp recognize the Baofeng UV-5R (high power

version) 7 watts handheld?

 

  I purchased one of these 2 days ago and have not been able

to get Chirp to recognize it. It keeps saying that I have “Chosen

the wrong model number” from the list of radios that the software

recognizes. BUT I have been using the UV-5R setting??

 

The firmware version from the transceiver is BFP3-25.

 

I have downloaded the latest daily version of Chirp

chirp-daily-20151009-installer.exe

and still have the same problem.

 

If anyone has any ideas, it would be appreciated.

 

Best regards:
