Hi there,
I have this model radio and wish to program it. Unfortunately as an Apple Mac user I cannot run the manufacturers software written for MS Windows.
I am hoping that CHIRP can be my answer but this model radio does not appear to, as yet be compliant.
Would you please add Baofeng 5RH PRO to CHIRP?
Can you give a rough idea when this might happen?
CHIRP works well with my Baofeng UV 5R - thank you.
Good wishes,
Chris

This ticket seems to be relevant: https://chirpmyradio.com/issues/11669 Looks as though support for this box is going to be tricky, as it seems to be a moving target. Whatever help you can provide those doing the fiddling will doubtless be welcomed.
You may be lucky not to be able to run the mfr's Windows software; I've seen reports that the downloadables are malware-infested. As for me, I have a new BF-F9V2+ from my favorite surplus folks, and it programs with CHIRP using the BF-F8HP selection.
