[chirp_users] Btech UV5001

Hi Robert,

There is a new batch of BTECH (Generation 3) out there that don't have 
Chirp support yet, that apply for recently purchased ones (yes for all 
the three models of BTECH).

We have the IDs and all programming details thanks to the cooperation of 
the OEM and a patch with support for those radios is on the develop 
queue ready to apply.

Oops!!!

Writing this email I noticed that the patch was applied just a minutes 
ago, tomorrow we will have new Chirp version with support for these radios.

I am able to download and upload on the 2501+200, but I have not been able to have a successful download with the 5001.  I continually receive the error that the radio os unable to be identified.  I am able to program manually but I hate not having the ability for uniform programming with my other radios via CHIRP and my saved CSV files. Is anyone still working on the UV5001? the radio works well, I just want to be able to program with CHIRP.
