Got to the UV5 “Menu” and use arrow to go to menu 22 “MDF-B.” Hit the “menu” button again and arrow to “NAME.” Hit mane to confirm and “EXIT.” Now you have FREQuency display on “A” with a name of its channel on. Just did it on mine…kind of nice. Just remember whatever is displayed on A channel is probably different than what is selected on B. (Unless same channels are selected.)

I'm new to the UV-5R and CHIRP and am having a problem that I hope is an easy fix. I was able to download from the radio and everything seems fine. I added names to the previously saved channels and added a ton of channels from the included files. When ?I uploaded the configuration to the radio, the channel names do not display. When ?I download the new configuration from the radio, the channel names were not present.? So it's definitely not sending the channel names to the radio. I have channel A set to display names and I have tried with B set to names or frequency but it doesn't change the outcome.? Any help would be greatly appreciated.? Thank you?
