Hi, everybody.
I'm a little late... (grin) but maybe this is useful for someone...
I just saved the preset frequencies of the Baofeng BF-888s, using CHIRP, then copied each channel, from 1 to 16, to the channels 101 to 116 in my UV-5R. It's working perfectly.
Regards from Brazil

I extracted these from the Baofeng BF-888S radio sets in my country (PK). Programmed these settings in my UV-82HP and it works perfectly on all 16 channels

Let me start by saying, “Yes” I have read this and other posts. It is not my intent to violate the FCC’s laws/rules. But, being an analytical type of person, I need to know the “Why”.
I have a few Baofeng BF8888s. I used the latest version of CHIRP Next to pull the channel list off the 888s.

screenshot 138

I have a Baofeng GT-5TP. I learned you can program the GT-5TP using CHIRP by setting the type of radio to UV-82HP. I have been able to pull the programming table off and reload it. No problem

I loaded the 888s frequencies onto my GT-5TP. Again, I trying to figure out the “WHY”.
I can hear some of the channels on the GT-5TP when I transmit on my 888, but not all of them. WHY? Also, I can’t hear anything on my 888 if I transmit from the GT-5TP. It is as if it is not transmitting at all. When I push the PPT button I don’t get the orange transmitting light. Did I miss a configuration somewhere? Or is the GT-5TP built so that it cannot transmit on FRS/GMRA channels to be compliant with the FCC rules? Again, I do not intend to use the GT-5TP unlawfully. This is purely academic. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello there. After checking the GT-5TP specs it says "Frequency Range: VHF 144-148MHz (TX/RX); UHF: 420-450MHz(TX/RX)".
Could this be purely a hardware issue on the GT-5TP side of things? None of the 888s listed frequencies are within the 420-450 range.

I finally figured it out. The GT-5TP sold in the USA has a software block. The only way to use the above-listed frequencies is to jailbreak the phone back to default. So, in theory, if you revert to the original default you can transmit on the above-listed channels.
