[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-5R+Upload Error

[Phaeton]

I'll be testing the Baofeng F-11 Friday when I get it from Ed Griffin. 
He sends me samples to test out on my service monitors and spectrum
analyzer so he can give the factory input on any problems
that might be encounters so the radio does not go into production before
these problems are corrected. I happened to purchase this F-11and am
curious to see how it works with the daily build for Mac OSX. It works good
with the Wouxun UV6D and the Baofeng will use the same cable.

However after making a frequency change to one channel and trying to Upload the changes back to the radio, I get the message: “Unsupported Firmware Version BFB301 BFB297”.  This happens right after the “Cloning” window pops up.
