Hello Everyone,

I fellow HAM pointed me to this URL which seems pretty pretty interesting on how to do some advanced things with these inexpensive radios:

In a different article on the same site, the author mentioned he looked at Chirp to do this programming but gave up as it only programs memories and some radio settings:

I'm curious if Chirp could actually set some of these low level RDA1846 codes or if it really requires direct programming via I2C?
