Here's what I'm stuck on. I took an image off the Baofeng to use as a
template. I'm trying to enter the RX freq of 156.2025 into the first
memory channel. When I do so, I get the error "Tuning step 2.50 not
supported...Frequency requires 2.50kHz step." I need to configure the
channel to receive on 159.000, figured I'd set Duplex to Split and set
Offset to 159.000. I'll spare you all the work-arounds I've tried, and
the other errors I've seen, 'cause I'm starting to wonder if my radio
won't support this "step", and I'm left to wonder what the heck "Tune
step" and "channelize" are anyway? I've looked in the wiki, and done
some web searching, but so far no joy. Any light would be much appreciated!

Thanks much,

Doug,

The UV-B5/UV-B6 does not support 2.5 KHz steps when programming from the keypad or the OEM software . CHIRP, however, is capable of programming these radios with this resolution. Unfortunately back in October it looks like I broke the capability trying to fix something else.

I will see what I can do to restore this capability. In the mean time, install and use the CHIRP Daily-20131019 build until the issue is resolved.
