Video Description

You can get the Baofeng UV-5R Programming Cable here: https://amzn.to/4iiG1rw Download the free CHIRP or CHIRP NEXT software here: https://chirpmyradio.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Download In this Baofeng Academy Lesson aka Baofengs for Dummies, I show you how easy it is to add your own custom start-message to a Baofeng UV-5R, BF-F8HP, most other Baofeng ham radios or GMRS radios. You can't program a startup message to a Baofeng directly on the radio, you must use the free CHIRP or CHIRP next software so I show you step-by-step how to do that using your PC. ►Want to help support my channel?
