Hi,

I've checked specs and 218 supports those steps. In fact, in Chirp in the settings (after downloading settings as bj218 from the transceiver) I can set the step to 6.25, 12.5, etc. So Chirp lets you set that step on config. But not on the moment you specify a frequency multiple of that step.

Perhaps the BJ-218 doesn't support 12.5K. Chirp thinks your radio is a 218.

Hi,

I'm a happy user of CHIRP with a Baofeng UV-5R!

Now I've purchased another chinese radio, Baojie BJ-318. Chirp supports BJ-218 in fact I think is almost the same.

Program works with it, downloads and uploads data.

BUT I cannot specify, for example, a channel with a frecuency "145.2875" CHIRP says that "Error setting memory: Tuning step 12.50 not supported - Frequency requires 12.50khz step".

Which is false, radio supports 6.5/12.5 steps and in fact MANUALLY you can save 145.2875.

Is this a bug, or a feature? :-)

Thank you!!!
