📚 Ham Radio Terms Decoded:
Chirp: Not the sound your stomach makes when you're waiting for your pizza, but an open-source software for radio programming. Close, though.
CPS (Computer Programming Software): Not your grandma's knitting software, but manufacturer-specific magic for making your Baofeng dance to your radio tune.

I like these newer displays on the Baofengs much better. So much easier on the old eyes.
You're one of the first reviewing this radio. Nice and thanks.
Well done, indeed. Thanks! Now I want one. Drat.
Great Video, thanks! Can I ask what colour your charge indicator goes when charging via USB C? The manual says Red for charging, Green for full, but mine just goes Orange when I plug the charger in? Thanks!
There's a new baofeng UV 18 Pro Max GPS that came out for under £30, listed as 10W, curious to see a power output on that.
You can program this UV25 by using tidradio wireless programmer version 2 the radio model match is UV17 PRO
Is it possible to buy a stand charger for this radio somewhere please?
im having trouble programming it manually, how do i get it to add the channel
Great video, Where can you get the T6UV CPS ??? Thank you !
I posted it in the HAMFam facebook group as every time i put it here it gets flagged for some reason or another.
@@ham-fam Thank you very much. I tried it with Chirp using the UV-17 profile and it worked perfectly. Thank you for all you do and your video's.
Hello i just purchased Baofeng Walkie Talkie UV-25 can not seem to locate a cable that is listed compatible with the UV-25 any recommendations Thanks
Any cable that works with the other Baofeng analogue models will work. Get a ftdi or ch340 cable try not to get a prolific one
Some people say it works on gmrs and some say it dont why is that is it the programming software or maybe the model they use on chirp
Using the included USB Cable. installed the driver and is working in device manager. Get this error when tryng to "Download from radio": UV-17 or UV-17PRO both give error: "Error Readering data from the radio: Not the amount of data we want."Cable is new and came with the unit. Connection is pushed all the way in. Anyone know how to fix?!
Depends - what is the CHIP inside the USB cable ?
So is it waterproof??
I don't see it as it has a K plug it may be water resistant but I wouldn't bet on it.
Its giving me an Error using the uv17, pro ,and pro gps
Try the UV-5RM , if that fails then something else is wrong - cable , port etc etc
I've programmed 6 of these radios using the UV-17 profile on Chirp and they all worked properly. I think you have another problem like port or not the right cable. Make sure you are using the Baofeng cable with the driver chip on the USB end that plugs into your computer.
But will it do gmrs?
Yes it will, the radio is fully opened from factory. In the USA that radio isn't part 95E certified by the FCC to be used on GMRS, but the short answer is YES. :)
I got the same radio I programmed with chirp and gmrs do not transmit on this radio I can only listen
@@jdp1956do you know how to unlock it like from the factory if I have a Us one?
I purchased mine on AliExpress and when it came it was fully opened. I did not have to do anything. I also have two friends that purchase the same radio on AliExpress and they were fully opened also.
So I did end up ordering this radio. And it is full unlocked! I do have it working on gmrs, and it's a pretty solid rig. Wattage testing shows it's getting a solid 8.5-9 watts on channel 24
The subscribe animations with the "Ding Ding" bell in your videos is extremely annoying!
Thx for the feed back , would it be better to remove the "ding dong" and reduce the size of the animation or get rid of it all together ? what do you think ?
Hi! Can I use the UV-5R cable to program this radio or do I need to buy a special cable?
+@marekdarkacz4078 that should work just fine :)
Thank you very much for information! Regards!
As long as the cable has the driver chip on the USB end you'll be good to go.
@@jdp1956 Thank you!!!
