The cable worked seamlessly with the Quansheng K6 and allowed me to upload the firmware. The cable I ordered from Aliexpress couldn't do that. On Windows 11, you don't need to install drivers from the disc. I recommend it.
-
The cable is robust and works flawlessly. The set includes a CD with drivers, but in my case it wasn't needed, as the computer detected the device automatically and it was ready to use immediately after connection. I recommend it.
-
The cable works flawlessly, it easily connects with the BF-T17 model. Drivers and software are available on the Baofeng website. It is an essential accessory for users of this brand's transceivers.
-
A great gadget for Baofeng walkie-talkie owners. With the chirp programme you can change many settings in the radio. There are plenty of guides online showing how to do this.
-
The cable is solid. Works both with the original Baofeng software and with CHIRP. The price could be a bit lower, but overall I recommend it.
-
The cable feels solid, and together with CHIRP it offers extensive configuration options for the transceiver. Highly recommended!
-
The cable works without problems, everything fits perfectly, though in my opinion it could be cheaper. Thanks to it I modified the frequencies in my Baofeng. If the price was lower, I'd give it 5/5.
-
I recommend it, indispensable for quick programming.
-
Everything fine with the cable, I recommend it.
-
Definitely makes programming and operating the radio easier, even in a more advanced way. The original FTDI chipset helps to avoid problems with outdated drivers that appear in cheap Chinese replacements.
-
Works perfectly with my Specna Arms from GF (practically Baofeng UV-82). Very functional for configuring: from channel settings to details like screen colours or power saving mode, all straight from the computer. You can also easily save and import settings. Super thing!
-
Everything works as it should, I recommend it.
-
Ideal when buying a new radio, programming would take much longer without it.
-
The cable is great, very durable and flexible.
