The "Alising for radio clones" wiki page says the followiong...

<quote> For example, if you read and save an image of a Juentai JT-6188 Mini, when you re-open it from the file in your hard drive, you will find Chirp telling you that this image is for a QYT KT-8900, not the Juentai JT-6188 Mini. This is completely normal and you are safe using it for your clone radio. </quote>

and this

<quote> Once you want to save a copy of your radio data you will find Chirp is suggesting you to use the {vendor}_{model}_{date}.img schema, for the above example you will receive the suggestion to use this: Juentai_JT-6188 Mini_{date}.img </quote>

I don't find that his is the case. As soon as the download is finished, CHIRP displays the {vendor}_{model} of the radio that the selection is an alias of.

Is this wiki incorrect or am I implementing the "alias" feature incorrectly?
