I have the original Baofeng BF-888S, but since them there appears to have been two updated versions, known as BF-888S Plus, one with an 1800 mAH battery, and the latest version with a 1900mAH battery.
Question is, does CHIRP support all three versions of the BF-888S?
And I see there is also a BF-999S version available but not listed on the CHIRP list. Does CHIRP also support that radio?
Tnx, 73, Richard AG5M
I'm pretty sure the BF-888S Plus is not supported by CHIRP. If the BF-999S is a variant of the BF-888S Plus, then it would stand to reason that it is not supported either. And Baofeng seems to have changed the currently shipping BF-888s radios, because there are many opened issues that report that CHIRP does not properly handle the settings in them.
