The channels that are in a Baofeng from the factory are factory testing frequencies and MUST NEVER be transmitted on. Additionally, those frequencies are not always the same.

(1) Where does your friend live?

(2) Will he be testing online or in-person? If in-person, perhaps the VEs could help or know of someone locally who would help him.

(3) Perhaps there is a ham club in his area. Usually, a club member will help him.

(4) Is there someone in his household who could help him if you talked them through it on the phone?

(5) If #4 is yes, they could install CHIRP for him and download an image file from his radio and send it to you for customization. Then you send it back for them to upload into his radio.

(6) The least desirable option is for him to send his radio to you for programming.

Good luck and 73 - John, KZ4KY

Hi,
A friend of mine just got a new Baofeng UV82, he is about to take his Ham
Tech test.
I sent him a Chirp install file, but I don't know if he will be able to
access it with his screenreader in windows 11.
So I have worked with him over the phone on entering frequencies into
frequency mode.
So in channel mode, it came with some channels, but he is Blind, so there is
no way for him to know what they are.
Can anyone send me a list of the channels they put in one of these from the
factory?
Maybe someone saved their original file that you can copy the channels and
associated frequencies for me please.

Thanks

Glenn
