You can use modified version of CHIRP from [releases](https://github.com/egzumer/uvk5-chirp-driver/releases). The modified CHIRP is built from [source code](https://github.com/egzumer/chirp/tree/egzumer) and contains the driver. It is packed using pyinstaller into one file for convinience, however some antiviruses don't like that and [report it as a threat](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43777106/program-made-with-pyinstaller-now-seen-as-a-trojan-horse-by-avg). If you don't trust this file, then use the other method.
