So I think some of this discussion needs to be how to eliminate the CHIRP requirement for each code to be 5 digits since the OEM software and UV-5R accept any number of digits including no digits.
We just need to pad the value appropriately. What are the un-used digits set to? 0xff or something?
I just checked. ANI requires a minimum of 3 digits. The unused digits are
set to 0xff The 15 PTT IDs can all be set to null and the unused digits are also set to 0xff
Anyone have any thoughts on this? I have a few things that I want to do
that depend on what I do here.
Thinking about it this morning, I am wondering if this could be done similarly to name (channel names) except using a charset that is limited to "0123456789".
