• Baofeng UV-5Rs with different firmware?

    From Daniel Hazen@21:1/5 to All on Thu Sep 30 15:13:36 2021
    A few years ago I ordered two UV-5Rs from Amazon, and got them but they have different firmware which means I can't directly use the same codeplug for both of them. I have to copy and paste.

    Here are the Firmware Messages for each radio:
    Baofeng 1: Firmware Msg 1: HN5RV01; Firmware Msg 2: 1FB297
    Baofeng 2: Firmware Msg 1: HN5RV01; Firmware Msg 2: 1

    It would be helpful to trade radios with someone (preferably near Denver) who has the same firmware as one of these radios.

    Not a big deal ... just somewhat inconvenient!
