Hey All,
First of all, thanks so much for your wonderful radio community
resources.
I'm new to all of this, but just screwed up and so I've started
actually learning!
Using Chirp, I uploaded an image from one of my radios onto the same
model UV-5RA radio with different firmware (oops). I now can only receive on
that radio if holding the mon button. I think I need to upload an image
downloaded from a radio with the same firmware and then import my local
frequency list using my CSV export.
When I try to upload the BFB297 image using the latest daily Chirp
software (chirp-daily-20141210), I get this message:
"Upload finished, but the 'Other Settings' could not be sent
because the firmware version of the image ( Ver BFB297 ) does
not match that of the radio (N5R-213BFB297 )."
If I use the N5R-213 image, I get the following error:
---

----------------------------
Can I just modify the special block of the image? Any help would be
much appreciated.
Thanks, Simon.
