Both radios have exactly the same menu structure and report "high/med/low" power settings. I'll try to measure the power when I get time. Serial numbers are also very close, but as noted one reports BFB325 and one BFB323 when holding 3 pressed when turning on.</pre><pre style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">I downloaded from the BFB323 radio, set a frequency, CTCSS t/r, shift, offset, and power level "low".</pre><pre style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">After uploading to the radio frequency and CTCSS tones and mode are set correctly, but shift and offset are "off" and "0", respectively. Power setting is reported as "Mid". In the display both "+" and "-" for shift are lit. Trying to change the offset to non-zero does not work.</pre><pre style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">It seems it is not entirely a UV5-R, but I don't know what it is :)</pre><pre style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">Cheers,</pre><pre style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">Hans SM7TLH/KG6POK</pre></div>
