Manual programming
Manual programming is somewhat difficult until you get used to it, especially when
programming in duplex channels. Note that the ANI S-CODE IDs can only be set from a
computer. When programming channels it is important to remember that you can only save
memory channels when working on the upper display in VFO mode.
To create a new channel, start by switching your radio to Frequency (VFO) mode using
VFO/MR key. When in Frequency (VFO) mode, select your desired receive frequency
using the numerical keypad. After that, use the menu system to configure the finer details
of the channel you're wanting to program to memory, such as transmit power, bandwidth,
CTCSS or DCS and more.

Memory channels are an easy way to store commonly used frequencies so that they can
easily be retrieved at a later date.
The Baofeng UV-5R EX features 128 memory channels that each can hold: Receive and
transmit frequencies, transmit power, group signaling information, bandwidth, ANI/ PTT-ID
settings and a six-character alphanumeric identifier or channel name 1.

Even though the software has eight (8) character wide text for the power-on
message, be aware that the display on the UV- 5RX3 can only display a
maximum of seven (7) characters.
Make sure that menu item 38 is set to MSG, otherwise your message won’t be
displayed. See Chapter4 Working the menu system for details on how to navigate
the menu.
Sometimes it takes the Baofeng software more than one try to connect to your
radio. If you see a dialogue box popping up stating that you have a connection
failure, close the dialogue box and click read or write again.
