Oh I see, well, then maybe the valid_bands thing isn't the right fix.
Because really the problem is just that the tests are using the first
channel in the list as the test channel.
Sounds like a more complicated change is going to be needed. In the
tests, perhaps it should go looking for a memory channel that isn't
immutable before it tries to use it to set things?
Very rough idea:
test_mem = None
for i in range(*rf.memory_bounds):
m = radio.get_memory(i)
if not 'freq' in m.immutable:
test_mem = m
break
if not test_mem:
# skip because no memories are usable
# continue to do test with test_mem instead of just blindly using #1
