The OEM software appears to be the same as the UV-82/5R OEM software except the settings that would require a display and keypad to access have been removed.

The UV-82, as it relates to computer programming, is nearly identical to the UV-5R.

The UV-8 looks very similar to a UV-82 with the LCD display and keypad removed. If you have a 32-bit windows computer available to install and use this OEM software on, it would be great if you could capture a download session from it using Portmon (link below) and post it here. The OEM software for the UV-8 (as well as other Baofeng radios) is available on the website.
