Did you download the 888 software from Baofeng web site? That's what I use on mine. It has the scramble option and all. Never could get chirp to work with it either.

Someone sent me one of the BF-888S radios that won't program. It programs just fine for me. The only way I can get it to not program was to intentionally install and select an incompatible device driver for the programming cable.

Also, CHIRP supports the scramble option.
