I followed Two Way Radios Instructions to install to my Baofeng UV 5R-3. I downloaded from radio to Chirp software. Then I Accessed the repeater data base to select 2 meter and 70 cm. repeaters. This was successful but I couldn't download the chosen repeaters to the radio. the "downoad to radio" was gray and no matter what I tried I was unable to download to the radio. Help!
This is because you accessed the repeater data and brought it into a tab that did not originate from your radio. It probably says "GENERIC CSV: {somefilename}.csv" in the tab. The tab you upload must say "Baofeng UV-5R: {somefilename}.img".
So the quick and dirty thing to do is to copy and past from the "GENERIC CSV:" tab to the "Baofeng UV-5R" tab so you can upload it to your radio.
