yes, did some more tests if you type it on the keypad and store it, when you go back into the menu's it's just displaying the previously entered data - maybe from a buffer somewhere. so it looks like it's just the inverted power levels need fixing. -- stephen johnston

i'll try again. in chip you set the base frequency, offset & shift direction. how that gets into the radio i supose depends on the radio, but i have it set in chip and it's not making it into the radio. as for the radio itself, i can tell you now - because i have done it last week. unlike older baofeng stuff with direct-entry bugs and stupid work arounds from places like Miklor, you can enter the frequency, offset and shift-direction from the keypad - and it works - and you can save it!! so i suppose later, i will reset the radio, put a channel in by keypad - then read it with chip. if it's right, i will reset the radio again and upload the downloaded data to see if it's still o.k.. -- stephen johnston

[chirp_users] UV-6R driver issue
by stephen johnston 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

i just tried the latest "daily", i imported some channels from my UV82 - most stuff seems o.k. but it does not appear to be uploading the shift direction, or frequency offsets to the radio. i see them in the tab i imported them into (and saved) but they are not showing in the radio after upload. also, maybe not a bug, but is the alpha-tag on the UV-6R supposed to be 6 characters instead 7? if not then it's also not uploading the complete channel name field - only the first 6 characters.
