Thanks.
AMS on/off is stored per memory channel - will default to on and handled in
memory extras. The radio settings store what AMS does, i.e TX Auto, TX DN,
TX VW or TX FM. I don't think this finer control of AMS is stored per
channel - but have not checked! DMR and DV are in the CHIRP list so adding
C4FM seems logical. Then perhaps mem extras takes care of setting VW?
Also need to look at how the data imports are handled as more repeaters
support several modes, but can only - it seems report one. I have a
particular interest in this as I am involved in the RepeaterBook project.
