CH340 Programming Cable

I bought the xBAOFENG USB Programming Cable (CH340 Chip, Orange) to program my Baofeng, Wouxun, and other similar connector radios. My original programming cable required drivers that were difficult to find and install online, which was frustrating. This cable, however, works seamlessly without needing extra drivers, making setup quick and hassle-free. The build quality feels solid and durable, and the cable has performed perfectly so far. I’m very happy with it. I might buy another one to keep in my travel bag just in case, but honestly, this cable seems built to last a long time.

I got this as a second programming cable to use while out in the woods. It worked well, with little setup drama when connecting like the cheapest cloned chipset cables can give you. This is a valuable thing if you're allergic to being annoyed like I am. Equally important to me, the color stands out and its sturdy enough to last a while. All this at a good price is nice. Compatibility wise, I've only used it on a Baofeng DM-32 DMR handheld. It worked exactly as expected with the manufacturer's free CPS software.

Works great. Helps find the cable quickly since there are so many black cables

This worked as expected to use my PC to program my radio. It's just a cable that connects USB to your PC and plugs in the handheld and you use software to program it. It saves considerable time and effort between doing it directly on the radio. I only give 4 stars because... its just a cable and by itself it is above and beyond amazing for 5 stars. It works fine, is a good length, and decent quality. It should come with the radio in my opinion since its a "special" cord.

Received my programming cable today. I tried programming my Baofeng UV-5RV2+ with CHIRP using UV-5R connection. It worked great downloading and uploading without any issues. I didn’t need to use the enclosed driver.

No driver needed. Worked right out of the box for my BF-F8HP Pro radio using CHIRP software. Great price and love the orange color. Seems to be good quality and should last. Mic + earpiece connection is nice and solid.

Works perfectly

It worked very well. I downloaded the software from the website for the radios I have. It had the correct version to interface with it. After that I could manipulate the channels on the computer, much easier than the radio key pad.

With this cable and the CHIRP software, programming is simple and easy. Saving frequencies and sending frequencies to your radio are now done at a click of your mouse.

Works well with my quansheng and baofeng radios

Funciona muy bien

Works fine with CHIRP, I did not try the included software on the mini disc.

Used the cable on a UV 9 radio and chirp program. Got it first try.
