I've applied the patch and I can now edit existing memories and add info to previously empty ones. Cool.
Sweet, I'll commit that to the tree. Can you send me a log of you setting the memory name? That might give me a clue about why it's not being read properly.
This brings up a feature request... when using "live" radios, it would be nice to have an option to update CHIRP's idea of the contents of a particular memory. For example, say I fiddle with a radio setting on the radio, while it's connected to CHIRP. I want to refresh CHIRP's row for that memory. I think the right-click popup on the memory row would be the right place for this kind of option.
Yes, that's a valid request. Some of the live radios do caching and some do not. I have some work in progress to unify them all so they use the same scheme, which will then allow me to make a generic cache dump like you're talking about.
Thanks!
