More importantly, I recall you from the UV-5R list asking this same question, so I think you'd best be served by downloading the latest version, as the support for the UV-5R is *vastly* better in the latest stable release. The version you want lacks significant features and doesn't support the latest versions of the firmware on the UV-5R.

All told, you'd likely be better off concentrating your energies working with this group to get the current stable (or even the latest daily) build working.

Old versions of Chirp can be downloaded here: http://chirp.danplanet.com/download/

But I don't know why you would want old versions, they have bugs. We don't release new versions for the hell of it, we do it to fix bugs and add support for new radios.
