Unfortunately, CHIRP for the BF-888S is still a work in progress.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I was trying to get it to work this morning under Windows and it's still buggy.<br>
<br>
It will download an image from the radio but will not upload the changes back to the radio.<br>
<br>
A bug report was submitted about 3 weeks ago. Bug Report #1195<br>

The latest daily build lists the 888S but that's a dual band and<br>
it's highly unlikely the two are interchangeable as far as programming<br>
with Chirp. Maybe the 666S is in the works, I don't know I'm not part<br>
of their software development. Jens who posts to this list is part of<br>
that group of people so he would be a better source of info as to what<br>
is in the works.<br>

The BF-888S is single-band UHF, 400-470 MHz. I was using one to test the<br>
code, as well as an HST H-777. (Which is basically the same thing with<br>
different labels, and is actually made by Baofeng according to the CMIIT<br>
ID details.)<br>
<br>
The web suggests that the BF-666S can be programmed with the Baofeng<br>
BF-480 Windows software, which is the same as used for the BF-888S.<br>
