Good Morning to All from new guy....
Greg here in Indianapolis, and brand new to the group & using CHIRP. Just received a BaoFeng BF-F8HP yesterday and have been playing with. I was amble to download from radio, but not upload. When I try to upload a new 'img' file, I get the following error message:
Unsupported firmware version: N5R3401F8HP-1
Not sure how to look for this, nor where to find.
Thanks, in advance for any help..... Greg

Greg,
You currently should not be using the CHIRP stable build for any Baofeng/Pofung radios because of memory layout changes in the latest models. Also, the CHIRP stable build does not support the radios with 3 power levels (see the Support Radios list on the CHIRP home page. Upgrade to the latest CHIRP daily build and you should be OK.
