Now I have the MacBook Pro 2018 with USB-C.
-I have the Apple supplied FTDI drive & no others.
-Only bluetooth shows up in the connect menu
-I also am using a new Baofeng. I used to have the UV-5R but now I’m using a BF-F9HP which I understand is supposed to be a UV-5R variant. Do I select UV-5R or BF-F8 in the menu?
Can anyone provide a starting point?
Best regards,
Phillip
