<div style="color:#888888;margin-left:24px;margin-right:24px"><p dir="ltr">My complaint</p>
<p dir="ltr">Regarding Firmware. If you refuse to provide Firmware to
CHIRP programmers I will stop supporting your business & stop using
your radios. I have sent you a lot of sales because of CHIRP & how
easy it is to use. I love your radios & CHIRP. Together they are
great! Honestly your software sucks! It is very difficult to use. I will
not try it again. I suggest you supply CHIRP with the UV-5RV2+ &
any future firmware or I will boycott your products & send new radio
interests elsewhere.</p>

<div style="color:#888888;margin-left:24px;margin-right:24px"><div><br>I'm glad to see
you have it worked out.<br><br>UV-5R style radio development for CHIRP
has been quited active over<br>the last 4+ years. Except for a few
recent models that chose not to<br>provide their firmware version, it
you cannot program your UV-5R<br>variant, there is a 99% chance that it
is a cabling problem (device<br>driver and/or connection of the cable to
the radio).<br><br>Jim KC9HI<br>_______________________________________________<br>chirp_users

<div style="color:#888888;margin-left:24px;margin-right:24px"><div>Success !<br><br>It ended
up being three issues:<br><br>1) The speaker and mic jacks on my new
UV-5RV2+ are not centered. They <br>are off by a few mm. Therefore, my
programming cable would not seat <br>correctly. Trimmed the cable plug
with a utility knife until it seated <br>properly. Incidentally, my old
UV-5RA has the jacks centered.<br><br>2) While trimming the cable plug, I
accidentally cut the ground wire. <br>After repairing that, the old
UV-5RA could be read with CHIRP.<br><br>3) The 2014 version of CHIRP
does not talk to the new UV-5RV2+. The <br>latest build does work
correctly with the UV-5RV2+. Thanks !<br><br>A learning experience.<br><br>73,<br>Steve,
