I have used Chirp with Baofeng and BTech radios. I may have the occasion to program some retevis rt-5rv radios. They look quite similar to the retevis rt-5r (with just the addition of a chrome screen over the speaker), and appear to be like the Baofeng UV-5r radios.
I assume that they are part of the same family as the Baofeng 5 series radios. Chirp does have an entry for the retevis rt-5r, but not for the retevis rt-5rV variant. I expect that they are functionally the same (for programming basic functionality e.g. channels, channel names etc.), but can anybody confirm that they can be programmed with the 5R selected?
