Hello,

I just subscribed to this list. Could not find an answer to my question in
the FAQ section, so I hope it is OK to ask here.

I am using chirpw on an Ubuntu system. It is the newest version, CHIRP
daily-20190201. I have been using it for a while for two different Baofeng
UV-5Rs and it works fine.

I then ordered a Baofeng UV-B6 which arrived last week. Before ordering it,
I made sure it is in the list of supported models. So I tried first to
download whatever is stored on the radio and I planned to then modify that
(this is what I did with the UV-5Rs). However, I found that the UV-B6 is
not in the drop-down list of models I can choose. The UV-B5 is listed but
when I tried this setting it did not work.

Help?

Thank you!

Not unusual with chinese radios to find that a "new model" is just a rebadged something else.

You might find that calling it by another model name works.
