Beofeng is an .img (image) type radio. It is completely unclear in the documentation for new users that you MUST do a download first. The authors claim it is clear except that they don't tell you what radios need it and what to do to create it. Oh, well, clear to some I guess.

The TH-F6 is a live radio. You let it populate and then make changes. Menu #9 is the one to change the function of the speaker/mic sockets. It has 3 choices. All obvious.

I have both and they operate completely different with the same program. Nice program!
