A bit more info:

After resetting the uv-b5 via the startup menu (hold menu and power
on), I was able to:

  - download an image
  - partially upload that same image (Ended with "Radio NAK'd block at
address 0x0f00"

After doing this, the radio:

  - no longer accepts new images (appears in the same state as it was before)
  - displays a lock icon on the display
  - doesn't appear to let me get back to the initialization menu
