I like these newer displays on the Baofengs much better. So much easier on the old eyes.

Hello i just purchased Baofeng Walkie Talkie UV-25 can not seem to locate a cable that is listed compatible with the UV-25 any recommendations Thanks
@ham-fam6 ай бұрын
Any cable that works with the other Baofeng analogue models will work. Get a ftdi or ch340 cable try not to get a prolific one

Great Video, thanks! Can I ask what colour your charge indicator goes when charging via USB C? The manual says Red for charging, Green for full, but mine just goes Orange when I plug the charger in? Thanks!

There's a new baofeng UV 18 Pro Max GPS that came out for under £30, listed as 10W, curious to see a power output on that.

Using the included USB Cable. installed the driver and is working in device manager. Get this error when tryng to "Download from radio": UV-17 or UV-17PRO both give error: "Error Readering data from the radio: Not the amount of data we want."Cable is new and came with the unit. Connection is pushed all the way in. Anyone know how to fix?!

Depends - what is the CHIP inside the USB cable ?

But will it do gmrs?
@jdp19566 ай бұрын
Yes it will, the radio is fully opened from factory. In the USA that radio isn't part 95E certified by the FCC to be used on GMRS, but the short answer is YES. :)

I purchased mine on AliExpress and when it came it was fully opened. I did not have to do anything. I also have two friends that purchase the same radio on AliExpress and they were fully opened also.

So I did end up ordering this radio. And it is full unlocked! I do have it working on gmrs, and it's a pretty solid rig. Wattage testing shows it's getting a solid 8.5-9 watts on channel 24

I don't see it as it has a K plug it may be water resistant but I wouldn't bet on it.

Try the UV-5RM , if that fails then something else is wrong - cable , port etc etc
@jdp19566 ай бұрын
I've programmed 6 of these radios using the UV-17 profile on Chirp and they all worked properly. I think you have another problem like port or not the right cable. Make sure you are using the Baofeng cable with the driver chip on the USB end that plugs into your computer.

Thx for the feed back , would it be better to remove the "ding dong" and reduce the size of the animation or get rid of it all together ? what do you think ?

As long as the cable has the driver chip on the USB end you'll be good to go.
