If this is a newer UV5R, it is restricted to only the ham bands, per the new 
FCC guidelines for import to the US.
This is a firmware restriction of the radio that CHIRP cannot alter.
144-148 and 420-450 MHz transmit only.

Stay safe and healthy.

Subject: [chirp_users] Can't transmit freqs above 147.975

 

Hello,

 

I have a UV-5R and I am not able to transmit any vhf freq above 147.975.  I can 
program in 148.000 but all I get when I try to transmit is "Beep".

 

I am using CHIRP ver daily-20210930

 

1st time user, don't know if I am doing this correctly.  Please advise.

 

Thanks,

 

Jef
