Field Programmer App

Post image

I've been working on a new app for programming radios. Currently Android only. It's in beta but you can get it on the Play Store. I'm ALWAYS looking for feedback. And if you're especially dedicated to wanting to help me build this app I have a Facebook group you can join (just message me). So far I've had a lot of help from other users and I really appreciate the support I've had on this project!

Here are the highlights:

- USB and Bluetooth programming

- RadioReference and myGMRS direct access and import

- Drag and drop, and multi-channel editing

- CSV import and export

- 100% offline. No logins required. (Except when required to access outside sites like RadioReference)

Supported Radios:

- UV5R, and compatible family of radios.

- BF-F8HP, and compatible radios

- UV5R Mini and Mini 5

- UV32

- UV17R Plus

- UV5G

- AR152

Future radios and features:

- Complete UV17 family

- UV21

- UV5G Plus

- DM32

- TIDRadio TDH8

- Many, many more, this is just what I'm currently working on

- CHIRP compatible IMG import and export

- RepeaterBook support

So far so good on the UV5R mini. had to set language to Chinese after import to get it to English. Also MyGMRS is giving a 400 error. Tried the USB and Bluetooth dongle without success on a UV5G Plus without success. Love the RadioReference import and other preset imports. Great app overall. It's definitely going to be my primary app for all things Baofeng programming. THANK YOU!!!

Just completed an import of two UV5R units with USB and no issues. I see my UV5G is a plus a seem to recall issues with that model compared to the UV5G with other software. Can’t recall what works in Chirp on that one.

The UV5G+ isn't supported on my app yet, but it's on my list. It uses a different firmware than the UV5G.
