Just found a pair of Baofeng UV-3R's whilst having a tidy-up. Can't seem to find the software and drivers for the radio's anywhere on line. They are obsolete now and most links come-up 'page not found'. Was wondering if anyone had copies of the software, or viable links.
Thanks in anticipation, zodian01 (26CT3362)

Hi
If you take a look on YouTube and search the Youtube channel Tech Minds you will see that they have uploaded a video showing how to program the Baofeng UV-3R using the CHIRP software which you can download for free.

Hi Derek.
Have seen the Youtube tutorials on CHIRP. Thing is, my computer doesn't talk with the USB interface between the radio and the PC. I'm pretty convinced it's either a driver issue for the USB or a COM port problem.
Many thanks for replying.
