I'm new to the UV-5R and CHIRP and am having a problem that I hope is an easy fix. I was able to download from the radio and everything seems fine. I added names to the previously saved channels and added a ton of channels from the included files. When I uploaded the configuration to the radio, the channel names do not display. When I download the new configuration from the radio, the channel names were not present.

So it's definitely not sending the channel names to the radio. I have channel A set to display names and I have tried with B set to names or frequency but it doesn't change the outcome.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

If CHIRP is uploading the additional channels, it is uploading the names. Did you happen to set the Memory Display Format using the keypad. It would seem to me CHIRP is not set to the same values and is therefor changing the values (as it should).

Look at these CHIRP settings...

Settings -> Basic Settings -> Display Mode (A): Settings -> Basic Settings -> Display Mode (B):
