Hi Todd, > I just got a Baofeng UV-5R from Amazon. It shows Firmware Version BFB298 BFB298 traditionally indicates the radio is a VHF/220 model. > The Baofeng OEM software Reads and writes fine to the radio with this cable. Does the VIP version read and write the Welcome Message? > Chrip 03/14/19 gives the following error ?Radio refused to send second block > 0x1f00? The radio is refusing to send CHIRP the "aux memory" where the Welcome Message, band limits and squelch thresholds are stored. > Any ideas as to what may be going on here Sounds like a hardware/firmware issue. Jim KC9HI Hi Jim I am using the universal programmer (new_old) and it does not give the startup message nor will it let me edit the frequency range of the radio. It also doesn't report the firmware version. All I have is from pushing the 3 button when turning it on which doesn't really report the proper number anymore from what I have read. Guess I can try one of the other versions. I was hoping there was a work around 73 and thanks, Todd AD7VB
