Can you please confirm that creating a short memory label on the radio itself fires up the bug?
I haven't found a way to create a label on the radio that isn't space padded out to 8 characters.
It looks like it's the 0xff appearing in the 5th byte that triggers the bug on my radio.
Note: the radio creates a default label of CH-NNN (6 chars) that you have to change to spaces if you have less than 6 chars. (In my tests, the 7th and 8th bytes were spaces even though they weren't touched.)
I'm told FTBasicMMO (G4HFQ's software for the ft-8x7) has always space padded to 8 chars.
FYI on my early FT857 I have many memories labels of 2,3 and 4 characters and I never had a problem, this issue must be limited to only some production batches.
But are they space padded, or filled out with 0xff?
In your patch, the implied field names in the format strings won't work on Python versions < 2.7. Specifying field 0 will allow it work on Python 2.6
Change '{<:5}' to '{0:<5}'Thanks for your help, --Rob
