Baofeng has made memory layout changes with several of their firmware<br>
changes. This makes the CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) files saved from a<br>
radio with one firmware version incompatible with the same radio model<br>
having a different firmware version. For this reason, CHIRP now<br>
compares the firmware version of the radio with the firmware version<br>
of the image being uploaded and if they don't exactly match, the<br>
upload is not permitted.<br>
<br>
What you must do is import the channels from the source radio to the<br>
target radio and then change the configure the settings that aren't<br>
stored as part of the channels manually. Another (less thorough)<br>
method to transfer the channels is to download from each radio (or<br>
load existing images) creating separate tabs and then copy-and-paste<br>
between the tabs.<br>
