[chirp_devel] Need help with UV-5R reading/writing

[Jim Unroe]

Les,

OK. Let me try to say it another way

My STEP_LIST is a sequence of the available steps: 2.5, 5.0, 6.25, 10.0 etc.

The structure vfoa.step that I am reading from and writing to corresponds
to 0x00, 0x10, 0x20, 0x30 etc.

So I'm thinking that somehow I read the value, divide by 16 and then
display it in the settings tab.
Then if the user changes the setting, it get multiplied by 16 and get
written back.

Do I make sense?

Jim
