1--After installing Build 20130208 on my Baofeng UV-5RA I get an error while Uploading to the radio from Chirp, that Radio did not respond. I checked for good cable connections, Com Port, all to no avail. Uploading previous Builds were no problem, this is 1st problem I've experienced. 2--Also, when a new Build is issued, an *.asc attachment is included. What is it and I'm unable to open it. What program can open it? 3--How are Bugs reported, I'm newbie to this list so please excuse me.
Thanks, Bill
Bill,
What is your firmware release.
This can be found by:
1- Power off the UV5R
2- Press and Hold the 3 Key
3-While holding the 3 Key, Power on the radio
A readout of BFB--- will appear.

Bill,
I just loaded 20130208 successfully into my 3 radios, BFB231, 291 and 293.
The error message is commonly associated with a cable connection to the radio.
Reference http://miklor-uv5r.99k.org/UV5R-ErrorMess.html error message 1.

John, I'd already seen the link you provided & it was 1 of 1st things I checked before this Post.
I just now tried again turning radio on/off about 5 times, on 6th try, it uploaded. Strange quirks we run across at times.
