*Upgrading*: You do *NOT *need to uninstall an existing version of CHIRP
before installing a newer one. Just install the new one and it will replace
the existing copy! However, *be sure to quit CHIRP before installing the
new version!*

*The CHIRP team recommends CHIRP-next unless you experience problems with
your radio*. If you do, please see How_To_Report_Issues
