The UV-B5 and the B6 are basically the same radio. Read from the radio first (tell it it's a B5), open your 5R file, then copy your channel sheet over the B6. You can then set the particular options for this radio with the B5 options.

Hello,

I just subscribed to this list. Could not find an answer to my question in the FAQ section, so I hope it is OK to ask here.

I am using chirpw on an Ubuntu system. It is the newest version, CHIRP daily-20190201. I have been using it for a while for two different Baofeng UV-5Rs and it works fine.

I then ordered a Baofeng UV-B6 which arrived last week. Before ordering it, I made sure it is in the list of supported models. So I tried first to download whatever is stored on the radio and I planned to then modify that (this is what I did with the UV-5Rs). However, I found that the UV-B6 is not in the drop-down list of models I can choose. The UV-B5 is listed but when I tried this setting it did not work.

Help?

Thank you!
