I've ripped out 99% of the structure and code from the uv5r.py that isn't used or necessary. I've also borrowed from other radios as well as cleaned up the code from what I've learn by 'hacking' on the uv5r.py file for the last 13 months.
Ripped out 99% of the non-overlapping code or 99% of the UV5 code entirely?
What I meant was that if there were 100 lines of code that was not used for the UV-6, I have only removed 99 lines of it. I haven't removed the code for adjusting the band limits or the power-on messages yet. Sorry for the confusion.
I was trying to look over every settings to see if it could be utilized by the radio. I didn't want to remove it just because the OEM software didn't have it. If is still did something that the could be utilized by the user/radio, I wanted to leave it in.
If the UV-6 was going to be supported by a separate uv6.py driver, which was my goal, then I wanted to be sure it was completely sanitized from any unnecessary UV-5R, F-11, UV-82 and some left over BJ-UV-55 code in the structure or anywhere else.
What I was trying to avoid was to add it in and then find out it needed to be separate like the UV-55.
