That's it. If I change 5 to 6 and load the image the settings tab is available and the PTT-ID #1 is displayed as "1f0202" (6 characters long).
Okay, but just to be clear, the problem is not that it should be be 6 characters long, but that the 1F hex value is being rendered into the string as two characters, right? I think you know this, but just making sure...
Right. 1F is the problem.
I'm guessing that 0x1F is a sentinel value, which would be a five-bit field of all ones (00011111).
Plus while testing, I just discovered that the Baofeng software also allows *, #, A, B, C and D in addition to the 10 digits.
Ah, good to know :)
Will this fix it?

It allows the characters to be read from the radio. But I get the following error when keying in the extended characters.
Error in setting value: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'A'
or '*' or '#' or 'B' or 'C' or 'D'. Clicking the [OK] button clears the error and enters the character in the field. The extended characters do not get uploaded to the radio.
