Adding channel names does not cause them to appear. You must also edit
the Memory Display Format of the corresponding display line to enable
the display of channel names.

Using the CHIRP UI, the settings would be:

For the top display line:
Settings -> Basic Settings -> Display Mode (A):

For the bottom display line:
Settings -> Basic Settings -> Display Mode (B):

The choices are Channel, Name and Frequency

Using the redio's menu system, the settings would be:

For the top display line:
Menu 21 (MDF-A)

For the top display line:
Menu 22 (MDF-B)

The choices are CH, NAME and FREQ

After making any changes from the radio's menu system, remember to
download the changes to CHIRP. Otherwise you next upload may return
the settings to the way they were previously.
