[chirp_users] Elementary help for novice requested!

[David]

Thanks for the response, Tom, much appreciated.

Your description is pretty much what I’m trying, unsuccessfully, to achieve.

I don’t seem able to either “file, save” or “file, save as”. Clicking on either doesn’t appear to work. When I’m on the page with “stock configuration” the “send to radio” option is greyed out.

I’ve tried a few times but always the same result. My next step is probably to download the chirp software and try again. Otherwise, I’m stuck!

Regards

David

Sounds like you're missing a step. Once you've downloaded successfully from the radio, save that file and keep it in case you ever want to go back to the settings it came out of the box with. Next, with that file still open, select "radio" from the top menu, "Import from stock config," and then select the UHF channels you need. Now save the modofied file under a new name, and with that file still open, try writingback to the radio.


Hope that helps!

I've just bought a Baofeng UV-5R III and I'd like to use it for marine vhf and 2m and 70cm amateur bands. I've held a ham license since the 1980s but have been inactive for many years.

I've succeeded with "Download from radio".  I've also opened a new page to "Import from stock config" to open FR marine vhf.

I can't seem to be able to "File; save" or "File; save as"?

When I'm on the marine vhf page, I can not "upload to radio" The text is greyed out?

All help gratefully received!

Many thanks
