Hello Group
I am trying to get 2 radios programed. These? are a BAOFENG UV_-5R and a BAOFENG UV-5RPlus. After loading they both are transmitting but upon release of PTT all the I get is a short blip of receive and nothing more. ANY SUGGESTIONS??? Thanks Charlie KA9HDG |
Re: UV-5RH Issues
I also checked on the group website and there is no image, just a placeholder.
/g/Baofeng/message/445 Maybe a link to the page where it's at instead?

I did see the whole thread about the prolific driver, but I tried 3 different cables (2 FTDI and a different one that requires no driver) and none of them worked. All of my other radios worked flawless with all of those cables. It¡¯s a shame as the 5RH was a really nice radio, but the 5RM is essentially the same thing and I have it working perfectly. Love it.

Re: UV-5RH Issues
I tried the miklor site but was not and to find a driver, just individual files that didn't seem to work. Michael Kimsey

Thanks, Dave. I did think about RT Systems, but couldn't justify spending the money on their software and cable on a maybe. I ended up returning the 5RH. My 5RM is a great radio, although I did order a TIDRADIO TD-H8 (2nd Gen) for the Bluetooth programming capability.?

Re: UV-5RH Issues
Jim I wrestled with my UV-5RA when trying to connect. The Miklor.com site has been good for me. Using the correct driver is my issue and with the Prolific chipset I have to use the 3.2.0.0 driver.? when you bring up the site you will pictures of radio by manufacturer and click the UV-5R. When reviewing either software, firmware or driver information read it all as there are recommendations for problems that exist.?

Re: UV-5RH Issues
I noticed you never mentioned using RT Systems.
Chirp has always been a problem child? for me.? I've used RT Systems on Baofeng, Icom, Kenwood, and Yaesu.? They are always problem free and work the first time every time right out of the box.? The only caveat is to make sure to use their cables.

Re: UV-5RH Issues
Hi, I had a similar problem with a recently purchased baofeng and quansheng also and after much trouble another member of our radio club told me that he had to apply alot more pressure than previous radios to press the cable into the radio to get the cables to connect. I have found that an easy test to see if the plug is fully inserted, manually program in a frequency and get someone else to call you without the plug into the radio, this will confirm the radio is hearing their transmission. Repeat with the plug inserted. You now should not hear the transmission and cable is inserted? correctly. Hope this solves the problem. Bob?

Re: UV-5RH Issues
What happens when you use the chirp? BF-F8HP model, as advised on the "Supported Radios" page?
