I have a Baofeng UV-5R radio and am attempting to download from radio and get the error that radio rejects download. I have the programming cable for the radio from Baofeng and it is a USB on the computer end. I even attempted to use another port on the computer.I get it to download from radio but gives me a new set of downloads. I then take the program I had manually set up on a Chirp screen and then export/import to the new download set up when downloaded to radio. I then attempt to download to radio. It will not clone and it says radio rejects clone, or radio rejects download. The manual does not have much information that came with the radio. I thought if I did a factory reset on the radio and wipe out all that was on the radio and then do the download from and to radio it might work but i can not find where to even do a factory reset on the radio. Any assistance would be appreciated Thomas Zeller KB0ORZ417-540-2955
Tom, Just so we are on the same page: - What are the Exact error messages you are receiving?
- What operating system are you using? - So we get things in the right direction, we ‘Download from Radio’ and Upload to Radio’
Do any of your messages match those in http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_ErrorMess.php ?

Tom,
When you can download from a Baofeng radio to CHIRP, but get an error when you try to upload from CHIRP to your Baofeng radio, it is usually because you are running the CHIRP v0.4.x stable build (or a very old CHIRP daily build). The now over 1 year old stable build should not be used with Baofeng radios. If you aren't already, you should download and use the latest CHIRP daily build that is compatible with your operating system.
