ATTENTION.
From CHIRPS UV-5R page :
"IMPORTANT NOTE:
Although CHIRP image files are interchangeable between radios with Firmware BFB290 and prior, this is NOT true with newer releases BFB291 and newer.
If you have a radio with Firmware BFB291 and one with BFB293, you MUST have a separate image file for each."
Our channel image files were done with the supplied VIP software, which WERE compatible , just make sure if/when you swap setup files - they are done by VIP and not CHIRP.
