Baofeng UV-17 PRO GPS Modified Software v1.2.5 ( k )  March 1, 2024 by Terri Kennedy |
The current factory software for the UV-17 Pro GPS (v1.2.4) is not without its issues. The major shortcoming is Not allowing Aircraft channels (108 - 136 MHz AM) to be entered via software.
There is a modified / updated software available which has corrected several bugs and added a few extra software features.
This modified version of the original software has been tested in a Windows 10 PC environment and appears to work fine.
Some of the changes and additions include:
- Correct lower VHF Limit to 108 MHz (was 136 MHz)
This allows AM Aircraft frequencies to be entered via the software.
- Cut and Paste of Channels and Channel Groups
- Bidirectional Import/Export data to CSV format
Note: Not compatible with CHIRP.
- Upload a Custom Start Up image
- Much improved Font and Color Scheme.
- Voice Pack editor
- Column sorting
A full list of current changes can be found in the Release Notes (.pdf) file installed with the program as well as here. RELEASE_NOTES
Loading the Modified software
- Unzip the program file (setup.exe)
- Program will create its own directory and desktop icon.
