Regarding the Yaesu FT-1802M, the "M" merely stands for Mobile radio. There may be a difference in the Euro version to the North American one, although usually there is a "E" after the Model name (for European Version). The "A" versions are for the Americas as we have a wider VHF section, same as UHF. I own a FT-3000M which is slightly different in specifications, both being High-Power VHF radios, yours is 50W, mine 65W output. The Euro versions will only TX 144-146 MHz, ours to 148 MHz, and the wide-band modification is quite simple. If you live out in the Countryside, the higher TX output you will really appreciate, just make sure your antenna will handle it and use a 5/8, and please due to the power wire it directly to your Battery or PS.
The Official Yaesu Website has all the details on this Radio.

I have a Rugged RH-5R that looks to be the same radio as a Baoffeng

What I would like to know are they the same? and and if so can I use chirp on my Rugged? as it is not listed on the support list.
Thanks
Do you know where I can get a copy of the "factory" programming software?

The thing about clones is that you can never be sure how "cloned" they are.
