Go to chirp.danplanet.com tell them it's a new radio that's unsupported and offer to loan the CHIRP developer your radio and cable and software so the radio can become supported.
No one has offered an equipment loan yet.
Few people want to buy a radio just to figure out how to program it, actually I'd say no one wants to do that.
How can I get my radio supported by CHIRP?¶ http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/FAQ#How-can-I-get-my-radio-supported-by-CHIRP
In order to add support for a new radio model to CHIRP, a developer needs to reverse engineer the clone protocol and memory format of the radio. This can often be done in a relatively short period of time, but requires physical access to the radio itself.
If you're interested in loaning your radio for this process, please follow these steps:
1. Look at the front page http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Wiki to make /sure/ that it is not already supported 2. Look at the current set of new model requests http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/issues?query_id=15 to see if it has already been requested. If it has, do *not* open another issue, but feel free to post comments and pledges to help in that item 3. If neither of the above applies, then open a new request http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/issues/new
*Please note* that there are many new models hitting the market each month. The chinese radio manufacturers crank them out at unbelievable rates. Many of these are copies of the same model, but often changed in very tiny but incompatible ways. As a volunteer-fueled project, we can't possibly address every model that shows up. Everyone wants their radio to be supported, but we have to address the models that are the most popular and which have developer support. If you are in the market for a radio, it is highly recommended that you check the CHIRP model support list before making a purchase. At the beginning of 2016, there were *over 300* requests to support new models in CHIRP pending in the issue tracker. So there's quite a backlog of requests!
