Sorry for the delay in getting to this. However, I’m not sure I understand what this has to do with OpenBSD. Can you explain a little more?

Hi.  I never saw an answer from Sasano-san, so I thought I would take a stab.  I have nothing directly to do with #4697, but I did encounter #5007 (sync broken with ID-51's) which was caused by the fix to 4697.

#4697 was an attempt to fix sync errors on OpenBSD with Icom radios, by discarding the echo-back of commands.  There must be some race condition in the fix (or different types of cables, some without echoback), since others did not find Sasano-san's problem.  Eventually an update to Openbsd seems to have fixed Sasano-san's problem without the patch contained in #4697, so he asked it to be reverted.

I'm hoping you can merge this patch reversion, since 'stock' chirp remains broken for my ID-51 with the patch present.

Let me know if you have any questions.
