[chirp_users] image number and firmware numbers do not match

[Dennis Klipa]

I submitted a post the other day looking for some help but it didn’t get
posted so I am trying again.  I think I sent it from the wrong email
address!



I had a problem trying to updoad a file to a new UV-5RE+ that a friend just
bought.  I had previously used this file to program 14 other units of the
same radio.  Another complication is that I had done it on an XP computer
buy am now using a Windows 7 machine.



I got an error message that the “Settings” had not been transferred because
the image number didn’t match the firmware number.  I looked in the file
and found where those numbers were listed but could not change them.



I did eventually figure out that if I downloaded the data from the new
radio to a new file, the firmware number came with it.  Then I could
populate the rest of the new file with data and it uploaded with no problem.



Now, if this item gets posted, I will be a happy camper.



Best Regards,

Dennis
