Baofeng bf-888s programming software free download
The BaoFeng BFS is a very cool and inexpensive little radio that a lot of people purchase before realizing that there is no way to program the BaoFeng BFS radio with just the radio, you have to purchase a programming cable, download the software, and learn what you are doing first.
Think of this as your How To Program the BaoFeng BFs For Dummies which will walk you through each step necessary to program the BaoFeng BFS, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download.
Of course to start with you will need the BaoFeng BFS radio. I liked this two pack as it had everything my wife and I needed to use the radios. The next thing you need is the programming cable to program the BaoFeng BFS such as the one I used, the Compatible USB Programming Cable for Baofeng or the BTECH PC03 FTDI Genuine USB Programming Cableboth from Amazon. Of course you will need a computer Windows, Mac, or Linux and the best free BaoFeng programming software is CHIRP which can program the BaoFeng BFS as well as many other radios.
The BaoFeng bfs programming software free download can be found on the CHIRP website. Once on the CHIRP website click the link that says Click here to download the latest Windows version or the link for Mac OSX or Linuxyou will see the following screen for Windows users Mac and Linux will be similar but from here on out I will only be showing the Windows version :.
From this screen you want to click on the chirp-daily-xxxxxxxx-installer. exe link where xxxxxxxx is the date of the file which will start the download. Once the download is complete you might see the following screen from Windows:. This is NOT because the file you downloaded is harmful, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download, it is because Windows Smartscreen does not recognize the file and since it is an executable file, it is a little over cautious.
Once you plug the cable into the computer it will either automatically find and install a driver for it, or it will not, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download.
You can check your device manager to see which happened. In my case it showed the following screen:. Note that it sees the cable, but does not know what to do with it. Since I opted for the Compatible USB Programming Cable for Baofeng bf-888s programming software free download to program the BaoFeng BFS, I received a cable and a small CD with the BaoFeng programming cable driver on it.
Inserting the disc allowed me to install the driver which then shows up in device manager like this:. Take a good look at the information in the red box above, we will need it in a second to program the BaoFeng BFS.
The next step is to plug in the radio, turn it on, and launch the CHIRP software, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download. The first time you run CHIRP you might see a pop up box that says that error reporting is enabled, you can just click OK and move on. Here is where we need to use that information I told you that you would need in a second, the COM port number.
I have set mine to COM3 and if you look up a couple images you will see that it matches what was shown in the device manager. Once you have the port set, set the Vendor box and Model box to what is shown in the image above and click OK. You should now see the following screen showing the default BaoFeng bfs frequency chart:. If you do not see this screen but instead get an error message about communicating with the radio, make baofeng bf-888s programming software free download that the cable is fully plugged into the side of the radio.
You should not be able to see either of the silver plugs, there should be no gap between the radio black plastic and the black plastic of the plug. If there is a gap, push a little harder and you should feel a solid click, retry the connection and it baofeng bf-888s programming software free download work. The vast majority of complaints I see about not being able to program the BaoFeng BFS is because of this problem. Looking at the programming above the first thing you should know is that unless you have a very eclectic assortment of baofeng bf-888s programming software free download licenses, using these radios in the stock configuration would seem to be quite illegal.
This is the main reason you need to program the BaoFeng BFS right after you get it. Bottom line, do NOT use the radio without reprogramming it first for your specific licensed frequencies!
You could also be transmitting on a frequency allocated to emergency services such as law enforcement, fire, or ambulance services. And yes, when I hear people using radios illegally I report them using the online FCC form. If you have not participated in one, contact your local amateur radio group and ask about them!
If you are programming one for a friend or bought one used, you may also find the following frequencies already in the radio:. Unfortunately these are illegal too since the baofeng bf-888s programming software free download are not licensed for those frequencies too much power, removable antenna, no FCC certification for FRS or GMRS, etc. Another thing you might find interesting is that if someone had programmed these baofeng bf-888s programming software free download operate on the FRS frequencies they may have also programmed CTCSS codes as well.
In FRS radios these are shown as a two digit code such as 11, in the BaoFeng they are frequencies such as Below is a listing of legal frequencies you can use to program the BaoFeng BFS assuming you have a valid amateur radio license:.
The three most common frequencies I have seen for simplex operation what you do when one baofeng bf-888s programming software free download talks directly to another handheld are I would recommend you put those in the first three channels. Next are other common simplex frequencies of The rest of the channels can be filled by finding the frequencies for your local repeaters and using them to finish off the programming.
The image above is my default way I program the BaoFeng BFS before adding local repeaters. Note that not only do I have the frequencies put in, but I also set the Tone Mode to TSQL and the TSQL value to This was done so that one radio will only open the squelch when the other radio transmits, avoiding all the static of manually trying to adjusting the squelch. Pro tip: When using TSQL you could very well transmit on a frequency that is already in use and never know it.
It is very important you monitor the frequency before using it to make sure that no one else is currently operating on that frequency, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download. To monitor the frequency when you have TSQL turned on press the top orange button on the side of the radio and that will manually open the squelch so you can listen for other traffic.
Since my wife and I only use these in small confined areas where we are not too far from each other and typically on low power, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download, I do not believe it is an issue. Pro tip: Do not leave a channel empty even if you have to repeat a frequency because turning the knob to that position when nothing is in it makes the radio emit a loud non-stop tone that is really annoying.
You can now turn off the radio, disconnect the cable, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download, turn the radio back on and start using it! If you talk into one radio and hear it on the other, you have successfully managed to program the BaoFeng BFS. Thank you for this. I just purchased two new BFS talkies from Amazon. There is no model information visible inside when you take the battery out except ISO I am unable to successfully program these talkies.
Baofeng bf-888s programming software free download programming, the squelch noise and the green squelch light is always on.
A channel with a programed audio code or DCS is quiet, but the green light is still on. I have been programming since and I have never had this problem before.
I have tried two programs and had the same result. Any suggestions that you might have would sure be appreciated. I assume you made a backup of the original programming, when you reinstall it, how does the radio work? If it works fine then you have done something wrong with your programming, simply change one setting at a time until you find the one that makes it work incorrectly. The is a UHF radio that only works in the Mhz frequency range.
The The radio is simply not capable of that. Thanks for the article because it has helped me determine what sorts of things I need to take into consideration when I recommend radios for my school.
The Motorolas and other legal radios are expensive. This is why I understand why so many schools and companies are turning to these inexpensive radios. The Baofeng UV-5R and others can still be programmed with CHIRP AND they can also be programmed manually from the radio itself. listen on 2M and then transmit on 70CM. Hi, got a set of bfs.
Been trying to programme the scan function on channel 16 using chirp. Any ideas? With the radio off, turn the channel knob to channel 16, press and hold the PTT and Monitor buttons while turning on the radio. If scanning is off, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download, it will be turned on and the radio will begin scanning channelsstopping when it hears a signal and resuming when that signal goes away. If scanning is already on, it will be turned off. Oh my gosh this is SO helpful!
I have been tearing my hair out trying to get my radio to scan. Will be using your other fine suggestions as well — via CHIRP software and Baofeng cable. Thank you! I believe they do have serial numbers. My guess is that the barcode under the battery is the serial number, but that is just a guess. Thank you, baofeng bf-888s programming software free download, it worked for me very well except that now I hear voice in Chinese announcing channel numbers as I switch.
Any way to get it back to English? To change back to English, Turn OFF the radio, set it to Ch. While holding PTT and the red button right below PTT, power the radio ON.
Your BF should be back to English. Thank you. Sorry for the stupid question, but… I bought as SHTF comms, they were what seemed like a great deal on Amazon. That is technically correct as far as I know.
This does not mean you were in a fender bender and will have to walk ten miles so you use the radio instead. This means someone just got hit by a car and is going to die in the next few minutes without medical attention, or you are lost in a huge forest with a real chance of not making it out alive. Can the power of this model be programmed to be just 0. I understand it must be 0. What would be the best Baofeng to be used on PMR ? Is that any model better than the s, for that purpose?
