You 2 nailed it as I expected. It is an F-11. Loaded fine. Did I miss something that there is an easy way to figure out the versions? It was fairly obvious as long as BFB (etc.) showed but the USA threw me. I do not often refer to Miklor. Maybe I should more often...
 
Appreciate the guidance, 73’s

USA349 firmware is the Baofeng F-11. Try using that radio to
download from in Chirp. I own one myself and really the only
practical difference from the UV5R is the firmare and the Badge.
Mine is badged F-11 though and I'm under the impression that the
radio you are trying to read from says UV5R but has the same firmware
as the F-11? Have a look here: http://www.wouxun.us/category.php?category_id=60

Hi All,
    I’ve been watching this page in amazement. For pretty much volunteer work, great job. I try and read all the posts regarding the UV-5R, own 2, have no trouble with them. A club member asked me to program his, the version comes up as USA349, and I have had no success getting access to it with the program. Always says it can’t communicate with the radio. Have tried all the connector suggestions. Any thoughts? It does accept keypad input.
