[chirp_users] Baofeng V6

Michael,

 

The second set of ??? on the top right, click that and you can select English.

Does not really matter, still does not communicate with the radio

Hi Bill

 

That is likely the answer, but no joy their either.  I have yet to find a button for language changes or anything else that gets me closer.  

 

Thanks all, this was just a shot in the dark.

You have to switch it to English by selecting English on the radio buttons. Then the question marks will disappear eh?

 

I hope I understand your issues, if not good luck!

Jack and I are seeing the same thing. We don't have the right software for the right radio. 

 

I know 100% in my case that the computer, ports and cable are functional. 

 

Boafeng own software has language localization issues.  The software loads but all the icons are full of question marks. .???

 

The failure is that the program tries to talk to the radio and the radio does not respond, so it times out. 

 

Sorry for the bandwidth on the chirp reflector, but this was the best collection of these type of users I know. 

 

Sadly there is no BF-v6 listed on their download site.

I am using the Baofeng software, error message cannot connect to radio

It is not a cable or port issue.

Is the programming of the UV-6 software or a driver/cable issue.

What error messages are you getting?

I have a UV-6, also cannot get it to program with the Baofeng software.

Has anyone successfully programmed the UV-6?

Thanks,

Jack

Yes, it isn't a port issue.

Hi All

 

I know that this is a little off topic and this radio isn't supported by Chirp, but has anyone actually been able to program one?

 

This is a 16 Channel VHF only unit.

 

I've tried just about all the software from Baofeng that I can find, but I have not found anything that will talk to the radio.

 

I am 'assuming' it is using a Kenwood cable configuration as well.
