A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows:

Changes for Build #55 [Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Another tweak to TH-F6A split memory storage Related to Bug #101

[Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] [uv5r] Fix inverted power level selection Should fix #106

[Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Coerce values when setting in bitwise. This will help avoid silly things like exceptions when value can be coerced to an int, but isn't and thus can't be used for bitwise-ops. Catch-all bug: #93

[Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Mark the development branch's version number accordingly Bug #93

[Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Add a match_model() to the XML driver, since it is now being asked to detect itself. Fallout from #102

[Tom Hayward tom@tomh.us] Add example .hmk file to test images. #102

[Tom Hayward tom@tomh.us] Add import support for Kenwood *.hmk files. Feature #102

[Tom Hayward tom@tomh.us] Make CSVRadio::__grow() accessible from inherited classes, such as HMKRadio. #102

[Tom Hayward tom@tomh.us] Make CSVRadio::match_model() more generic so it works with HMKRadio. #102

[Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Add a new FileBackedRadio subclass between CloneModeRadio and Radio

This helps to distinguish between purely file-based drivers (such as CSV and XML) and a file-backed radio that can be uploaded (such as all the current clone-type radios). This also changes the logic in chirpui/clone.py that filters out drivers that can't be connected to an actual device.

Related to Bug #102

[Tom Hayward tom@tomh.us] Add US FRS and GMRS Channels to stock_configs. #93

Changes for Build #56 [Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com] Fix more fallout from #102 in the XML driver
