Hi all,
I'm not a Yaesu guy and thus not very YSF-literate. It looks to me like the YSF radios call their digital mode "DN" when enabled (as opposed to "FM"), like D-STAR has DV. Is that right and does it make sense to use that in chirp's mode list for editing these channels? I had originally thought "YSF" like "DMR" would make sense, but now I'm not sure after looking at a radio. Yaesu's documentation doesn't seem to be super clear on this.
It also seems like maybe the convention is to actually set the radio to Auto mode because of the dual FM/digital nature of YSF repeaters, is that right? If we add support for this, does that mean "Auto" is really what we should be setting in most cases?
There's also a "VW" mode, but it seems to be sort of an additional flag, more so than just a mode. So does it make sense to set a channel to FM/DN (or Auto) and then have VW be a separate flag via extra/properties?
If there's someone that is YSF-literate that might be able to test some stuff in the coming week or so, speak up :)
