I will not be held responsible for any damage caused to your radio, or computer while using these files.
I have tried to make these settings as generic as possible, but you can please everyone – some people actually like the harsh announcement voice on these radios! It is worth bearing in mind, these files also change radio settings, such as beeps, voice and screen colours.

Once open, they can be uploaded to any UV-5R series radio, by selecting “Upload To Radio” and setting your COM port.
These are image files, which can be opened by selecting “File->Open” in CHIRP. The easiest way, I find, is to “Download from Radio”, import one of these files, then “Upload to Radio”, voila – no messing! If you import them into a new file, you may need to configure the file for your radio. If you import these into an already open radio file, you can go ahead and upload back to your device. The file comes in two flavours, “Calls” will display the callsign of each repeater on your radio, “Names” will display as much of the town/location name as fits on the display. When selecting the file, make sure you change the filetype in the “Open” window, so you can see CSV Files. To do this you must have a radio file, or new file open. This file can be imported using the “File->Import” menu in Chirp.

Plug all those parts together, install the software, and look below:
I will probably also do this for 2m repeaters, and maybe areas (eg. I have been playing around with some scripts to generate files which contain all useful UK repeaters (on 70cm) and can be imported straight into CHIRP.Īfter filtering out Non-Op, D-STAR and DMR – That means around 100 repeaters, which easily fit into the memory of a Baofeng HT (and many others).
