[Jim Unroe rock.unroe@gmail.com] [BF-V8A] Add Baofeng BF-V8A
This patch adds support for the Baofeng BF-V8A 16-channel UHF handheld radio.
fixes #10091
[Jim Unroe rock.unroe@gmail.com] [RT622] Add additional 'ID string'
It seems that the OEM CPS can "zero" the identification string. Apparently it can be edited to be anything that you want.
For now, this patch includes this new identification string to the list of strings known strings. If additional strings appear in the future, another solution will need to be found.
fixes #10080
[Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Initial Kenwood TH-D74 live driver
The Kenwood D74 does not have a full serial command set, which unfortunately means no support for memory names. So, this will never be very useful, but because the Kenwood live protocol is so easy, this will still be worthwhile. Like the D72 (and D710) a clone mode driver will be needed for full capability.
