The STEP setting has nothing to do with it. In the latest firmware versions the STEP setting has no bearing on what frequency can be entered into the VFO. The only thing that the STEP setting does now is the set how much the VFO frequency changes when you press the [UP]/[DN] arrow keys while in the VFO.
This error is introduces when the user set menu 25 (SFT-D) and menu 26 (OFFSET) to the appropriate values for the repeater being programmed and then taps the [*] key to put the radio into 'reverse mode" so the TX frequency doesn't need to be keyed in manually. Unfortunately there is a bug in the calculation of the TX frequency and this is what caused the error in the frequency that gets programmed into the memory channel.
A simple workaround is to tap the [*] key to see the TX frequency, write it down (or remember it), then tap the [*] key to exit "reverse mode". Now key the TX frequency in manually.
