[chirp_devel] [PATCH][UV-5R] Add VFO Frequency Presets to Work Mode Tab [#467]

[Jim Unroe]

Maybe I'm missing something. If the user has to enter the frequency as a
floating point number, how does storing it as an integer help? When the
user's input is changed to and saved as in integer, wouldn't the same error
occur?
