CoffeeTime Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Just an FYI Since the UV5R-8W was not listed in the Chirp Next drop-down menu today... I tested/used the BF-F8HP selection. That allowed all 3 Power settings to be selected during programming, instead of the 2 power settings as recognized for the UV5R drop-down model choice. It's alive! I hope this helps someone.

WRXB215 Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 I've been using chirp for my UV-5R8W for a few months now. I can't remember what I chose in the menu but it wasn't the BF-F8HP. If I have time during lunch today, I'll open chirp and get the radio out of the truck and see if I can figure out what I used. I haven't messed with it in a while.

WRXP381 Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 I’ve been using a few uv5r-8w radios for a year or so.  I just use uv5r. No muss no fuss.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
