Review on 📻 2021 Mirkit Baofeng UV-5R MK4 8W Max Power Ham Radio Two Way Radio by Doug Hook

I ordered this radio as an alternative to BaoFeng BF-F8HP. However, based on the decent reviews, I gave it a try, although hardware-wise the radio works well as expected. However, I found that there is a problem when I try to program it with the latest Chirp software. I get an error message stating that the radio's memory is incompatible when I try to select certain channels such as B. frs/gmrs channels, from the default configurations available in Chirp. The seller (Mirkit) claims to use their channel list file to fix the problem, but the error still occurs even when using their file. I have attached a screenshot. The only successful programming method was using the July 2017 version of Chirp, which was added to the channel listing. While this may work, I'd prefer to use the latest version of Chirp. Especially if you have more than one radio.
