Work is quite hectic for me too. Business is really off so they have us
manufacturing engineering types really working hard to improve things to be
more efficient when business gets back on track.

I still enjoy helping out with CHIRP during some of my off time so I'm
still interested.

This is probably where I think I would want to start. I'm just not sure I
feel comfortable doing it with a loaner radio.

 I've done the portmon thing already. That's how I figured out the silly
Baofeng UV-B5 was changing 'ident' strings and 'ack' codes as the settings
were changed (why would hey do that?).

OK.

Let me look at the list some more (while I think about it).
