<font size="-1">Hello Dave,<br>
<br>
Ok, thanks for the confirmation on what Chirp does today. I am
curious though if what Chirp downloads as an img from the radio is
the complete radio image? If it is a complete image yet it only
modifies the channel/freq/features areas, there still might be
some hope that someday, a "very advanced" area could be added to
flip these specific bits.<br>
<br>
While I'm at it, I'm curious what people think about this specific
9600 baud hack that this HAM did. In an analog radio, one would
need to tap into the discriminator to get a wide enough & flat
pass<br>
band to support FSK over FM. Since these Baofeng radios are SDRs
and pack everything into a few ASICs, I don't know if getting into
this stage of the radio block is required anymore.<br>
<br>
Thoughts?<br>

<div>Chirp only modifies the memory map, not the firmware. I
took a look at the Chirp source driver for the uv5r.py, and it
appears to only contain channel/freq/features settings,
nothing low level like the RDA1846 codes. This is consistent
with most other radios as well.</div>
