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>

up being three issues:<br class=""><br class="">1) The speaker and mic jacks on my new

programming cable would not seat <br class="">correctly. Trimmed the cable plug
with a utility knife until it seated <br class="">properly. Incidentally, my old
UV-5RA has the jacks centered.<br class=""><br class="">2) While trimming the cable plug, I
accidentally cut the ground wire. <br class="">After repairing that, the old
UV-5RA could be read with CHIRP.<br class=""><br class="">3) The 2014 version of CHIRP
does not talk to the new UV-5RV2+. The <br class="">latest build does work
correctly with the UV-5RV2+. Thanks !<br class=""><br class="">A learning experience.<br class=""><br class="">73,<br class="">Steve,
