It's an old version which has a bug that resulted in me not being able to
use my new radio for the week long event I purchased it for.

If you download a chirp file from a Baofeng UV-5R with an older firmware
version (such as BFS311), then upload it to a radio with a newer firmware
(such as N5R2407) with a version of chirp older than daily build 07172014,
it will not recieve audio.  Issue #2 here:

If this PPA did not exist, I would have used
https://launchpad.net/~dansmith/+archive/ubuntu/chirp-snapshots and not had
this problem.

(I used the PPA because the version in precise was too old to upload to a
UV-5R, I believe.)
