Thanks John.
Do you know if that's a technical limitation, or just means that there hasn't been anyone trying to work with this model yet? Are the protocols used to talk to the radios documented anywhere? Could always look at the source I suppose. <grin>
For what it's worth, it turns out I don't have a digital repeater in my area yet anyway, but will be looking to set up for regular analog use.

The digital version of the Baofeng is not supported by CHIRP.

Hello all, Call me new to everything - brand new ham (VA7TJL), new Chirp user, and have a new radio. I've read docs, but please let me know if the questions are too dumb. I've picked up a Baofeng DM-5R, V3 as seen here: https://www.fleetwooddp.com/products/pre-order-baofeng-dm-5r-v3-2018-digital-dmr-dual-band-amateur-ham-radio <https://www.fleetwooddp.com/products/pre-order-baofeng-dm-5r-v3-2018-digital-dmr-dual-band-amateur-ham-radio> It shows up as BF-5R on the boot screen, but neither that nor DM-5R are listed as supported. I did see though that there are other Baofeng radios under new and unusual names, that might be supported as a variant of one that is known. If there is a way to tell if this is the case, I'm open to suggestions. The Windows software from the manufacturer does detect and read the config from the radio, but the USB device (radio with supplied cable) shows up in settings Win 10 settings as, "MCU MOUSE DEMO", under the "Bluetooth and other Devices" section. When I try to read from the radio in Chirp, there is nothing shown under Ports in the drop down. I can select Baofeng as the vendor, and a number of other models are listed. Similarly, under Linux (current x64 Mint, based on Ubuntu) , there is no known port that the software is looking for. Ideas?
