Hi to all, some news about the patches in the development queue and some other infos.
The btech driver (for all supported radios looking similar to the btechs) has a bug about the driver not retrying the identification (aka: the driver does just one attempt) a patch for fixing that is on the queue, the driver will do 3 attempts, all due to a line not being tabulated correctly. (sorry, my fault)
That must fix what some user are reporting as "not working in the first try" or "not working from a cold start"
A new generation for the BTECH UV-2510+220 was discovered today, if any of you had faced a "Radio identification failed" error with this model you must try the next daily of Chirp that will contain support for this new version, all points that this is a second generation of the BTECH UV-2510+220.
*Mental note for you:* If you found a BTECH like radio that is supported on Chirp but it says "Radio identification failed" you may have hit a new variant, go to the chirp forum and left us a issue with a debug.log attached, that will speed up things a lot. (search in the chirp's wiki for "how to report a bug" for instructions)
Support for the Sainsonic GT-890 is waiting on the develop queue to be applied also.
Some users have experimented problems working the Juentai JT-6188 *Mini* with Chirp, we realize today that there is a new spin on this radios: the Juentai JT-6188 *Plus*. If any of you has this new _Plus_ radio we are willing to work with you for get it supported on chirp, just drop me and email.
This is getting the users confused as Chirp listed the JT-6188 *Mini* as a Clone of the QYT KT8900, but the new JT-6188 *Plus* is a totally different radio and is not supported by Chirp yet (this new model has 220Mhz and a fan)
