Hi Steven,
I'm pretty sure the Anytone CRT programming software is PC only but can/should run under a 'virtual machine' option on Mac & Linux.
However I don't believe there is an option for Chrome OS. I know people install Linux on Chromebooks whether as a replacement operating system or alongside Chrome and successfully run LibreOffice or other such, but I have no personal experience of whether the Anytone software runs under a WINE windows environment. (How I run some software on Linux but not everything works!)
Here's a link to the Anytone support page if it helps :-
https://anytonetech.com/support
(I installed Linux on a typical notebook recently to see if it would work and it was truly terrible!)
Or....maybe you could borrow/use someone's PC system for just such a task? Maybe send the radio off for programming, or even visit a CB store?
Sorry I can't be of more help and I hope you get sorted.
All the best, Victor

Aftrernoon bigdigger. How are you with using "Terminal" within Chrome OS?. If you know your way around terminal you can install wine as a crossover and then use wine to run the CRT software within Chrome OS. I have mine running either in linux under wine, or using a virtual machine. Never really used anything other than Linux and this works for me, but may not work for others.
