The UV-5R support is limited to the bands that the radio supports. But there is currently development going on for this model and a test driver module available for testing and feedback. Searching the CHIRP Activity page with '5rx' will currently bring up the active issue (#11046) at the top of the list. I have provided a direct link to the ticket below. https://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/11046 The current vendor/device selections are currently Baofeng / UV-5RX but I have plans to change that to '5RX' with the next test build or submission. Please test the driver module and provide feedback.
