[chirp_users] Setting CIRP to display name
by Harold Gray 17 Nov '20

17 Nov '20

When I set B to display the channel name it displays 70CM CA which is the name of frequency 446.000 in stead of the name of all the frequencies that I am using on A. How can I fix this?

I had the same problem with Win. 7.

Posted to Martin only. Should have gone to the list! Martin, You are quite correct. I can indeed change individual memory contents. Its just the bank configuration that is not accessible. I might have a look at the code myself and see whether I can add that functionality! Thanks. Martin Cooper wrote on 07/11/2020 19:42: > Can you really not make *any* changes?
