The new Baofang UV-5R (new firmware) doesn't work with Chirp yet, or the software it came with.
Never bothered to check my firmware, but make sure you're using the "Nightly Build" version of Chirp.

Are you checking on line also, or just waiting on the the mail?
Got my HT today, still no callsign, hoping for that tomorrow.
Haven't heard any traffic here in lovely Iowa yet other than some CW on the local 440 repeater. I've got ~24 channels programmed so far and was scanning them for an hour or so.
The new Baofang UV-5R (new firmware) doesn't work with Chirp yet, or the software it came with. I got it to work with VIP, so I'm using that for now. I'll switch to Chirp when they come out with a new version. I spent ~2 hours trying to get the driver to cooperate with the cable. Got that squared away and neither the Baofang or Chirp software would work. Tried VIP and it worked, so I programmed the ~2 dozen local stations and finally I'm "on" the air...listening anyway.
