I took a chance and used BF-F8HP on the drop down and was able to connect. I have found much misinformation on the web about this radio being “counterfeit/copy” of the BF-8HP but I was able to find it on the Chinese Baofeng website. Is this thing legit or not? Am I doing any harm telling CHIRP its a BF-8HP when its actually a BF-F9V2+?? Will there be/is there need for a specific version?<br>><br>> Sorry for my ignorance!
