Also tried Windows daily version with same results today on a new Win10 build. Note - in both windows and Mac versions mentioned here, these are the very first installs of chirp on these OSs. Also note, that the channels tab is fully populated after the clone, so this side is fine - its just the settings tab is blank. Tested on my other Baofeng radios and these display settings just fine on both Mac and Win installs - its just the BGTECH UV-5X3 which has the issue. Tried several daily versions also going back to Jan 19 with same outcome, so looks like this issue has been in the daily builds for some time.

I have tried a selection of daily versions going back to Jan 2017 and none of them show any details on the settings tab. I am sure this used to display correctly on my old Macbook. This new one running MacOS Mojave (10.14.3), and Win10 Pro 1809 (under VMWare Fusion 11.0.2).

No response in a year sadly. Just tried again with todays version of chirp and this issue still exists with the BTECH UV-5X3.

Hi Paul,
One of the band limits for the 1-1/2 meter band is out-of-range. Attach a CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) file and I will set it to the correct value.

Jim, I just reset the radio back to factory and did a read radio, and even then it doesn't display anything on settings page. I also wiped all channels, tried again with same result. I have attached an img file from a few moments ago for reference. thanks, Paul

Hi Paul,
A RESET doesn't set the radio back to factory (the way you received it). It basically just erases the channels and sets the VFOs, menus and channels 000 and 127 to the "firmware" defaults. Almost nothing beyond that (including the band limits which are what are incorrect) are touched by a RESET.
The corrected file has been attached.

Jim, that worked a treat. May I ask which band limit was out of range? Just out of interest. Thanks again, Paul
