I like the fact that the other settings aren't changed, just the frequency list and things that are related to it. I've gone to club meetings and programmed new radios (and old ones that the owner never had time to set up) for other members. Many of the settings are personal, and changing them means that the owner has to go in and reset all the settings that are specific to the user such as mic sensitivity, display settings, auto time off, and many others. It all depends on the radio.

the intent is to get channel mapping working first to
make programming a bit easier. But you should
be able to set your deviation to half or narrow by
copying the channels into VFO changing it there then
writing it back to the same memory spot. That doesn't
take much time unless you have maybe a hundred or
so channels to change to narrow. Then I would look
for software that does have that set menu item. Not
sure if there is a VX-7 Commander I know it supports
my VX-5.

I have used CHIRP to download my VX-7R's configuration (previously
created with VX-7 Commander) and noted that some of the radio-wide
features were not displayed .. only the contents of the specific memory
channels.  Is there any plan to address additional configuration items
as is done for the UV-5R?  I also did not see a FMN or half deviation
setting.
