download from radio to computer
under chirp go to settings
other settings
firmware
save the chirp file as that firmware version

do that with all your radios
there are many subversions of UV5Rs
you cant copy between differing firmware versions
but you can
copy the channel/slot list from one to another

Just to clarify, you are 'cloning' by writing an 'image' or settings file to the radios from CHIRP, correct? I ask because sometimes people mean cloning from radio-to-radio using a specific cloning cable.

How much time has elapsed between radio purchases? What are the firmware levels of the radios? What is the range of frequencies you are using (ham, GMRS/FRS, other)? One of these answers may provide the answer.

When ever I try to clone the new 4 they do nothing when I try to transmit . The channels all take after cloning but I can’t use the radio. Function restores after a factory reset. Radios were purchased from the same vendor, and  my new cable was purchased from the same vendor as well . first one was flawless but misplaced. Any ideas?
