[chirp_devel] [Yaesu FT-4, FT-65, FT-25] Automatic duplex value selection not working
# HG changeset patch # Parent 2d1d2bf03a4ae6f39b8dd2cb1fa83289ebaeadf1 [Yaesu FT-4, FT-65, FT-25] Automatic duplex value selection not working
When a user was programming radio manually and didn't explicitely select positive or negative offset, then the radio's automatic preselection was being saved to the radio's memory. The driver was able to read that, but didn't know what to do with it. Some code to determine the correct value for "duplex" (0 or 2, not 5 for auto) was added. This will work for 2m only; for 70cm, the rules in the band plans (at least the ones offered by ARRL) are not specific enough.
