I asked Bill to email me his .img file and sure enough PTT-ID #1 had a 0x1f
in the location where the first digit would normally be. I change it with a
hex editor and email it back. I received a report that it is working now.

That's it. If I change 5 to 6 and load the image the settings tab is
available and the PTT-ID #1 is displayed as "1f0202" (6 characters long).

So my question now is what is the best way to trap this condition?

Plus while testing, I just discovered that the Baofeng software also allows
*, #, A, B, C and D in addition to the 10 digits.

0 = 0x00
1 = 0x01
2 = 0x02
. . .
9 = 0x09
n/a  = 0x0a
* = 0x0b
# = 0x0c
A = 0x0d
B = 0x0e
C = 0x0f
D = 0x10

I wouldn't mind adding that to but I've not thought about it long enough to
figure out how to do that.
