Michael,

As far as I can tell, this is working for BTech UV-2501, UV-5001 and
UV-2501+220 radios and also the Luiton LT-588UV Radio. I uploaded to
all 4 radios using the OEM software to preload the valid 5-tone
settings. The settings values of the OEM software match the values in
CHIRP.

As far as I can tell from looking at the various OEM software, all of
the radios of this type support the DTMF, 2-Tone and 5-Tone signaling.
So I feel that these settings can be made available for all radio
models supported by this driver.
