[chirp_devel] [patch] [AnyTone778UV] Extended to support RT95
Attached patch adds support for the Retevis RT95 to the AnyTone778UV driver. Verified with help from Derek and Michele to run on the RT95.
There's also support for the CRT Micron UV, which _should_ work, the identification string is in the vendor software save image attached to the issue, but I've not been able to verify. That's enabled in the attached patch, is that the right approach, or would it be better left disabled for now?
I also attach images for the two new radios, but they're just copies of the AnyTone_778UV.img - tests pass, but is that OK?
Thanks Joe

Joe,
I've been playing around with the changes needed to support the Retevis RT95 . Do you want to fold that into what you are doing to do you want me to take care of it. I can supply a capture log and/or describe what is needed. It isn't very much.

Thanks Jim - The patch should support the RT95 to the same extent as the AnyTone 778. Any features you support that the anytone 778 driver doesn't would be good to add. That driver supports most features of memory read/write, though there are a couple of unknown bytes. What's missing is reading and writing the radio settings. I'm happy for you to add them on-top of this patch, or for you to describe them and I'll pop them in.
If you have an RT95, I'd really appreciate you giving the driver a go and seeing if it works.
Cheers, Joe

Scratch that, now verified.

Attached is a fresh version of the patch adding tested support for: * Midland DBR2500 * Retevis RT95 * CRT Micron UV
Supported features * Read and write memory access for 200 normal memories * CTCSS and DTCS for transmit and receive * Scan list * Tx off * Duplex (+ve, -ve, odd, and off splits) * Transmit power * Channel width (25kHz and 12.5kHz) * Retevis RT95, CRT Micron UV, and Midland DBR2500 radios
Unsupported features (known unknowns...) * VFO1, VFO2, and TRF memories * custom CTCSS tones * Full range of frequencies for tx and rx (limited to 144-148MHz and 430-450MHz * Band setting identification from radio * Any non-memory radio settings * Reverse, talkaround, scramble * busy channel lock out * probably other things too - like things encoded by the unknown bits in the memory struct
The test images haven't changed, but attached again for convenience.
Cheers, Joe
