It doesn't check on my Windows PC like it used to. I can't get tox to
work on my Linux PC either. :-(


But I did visually scan through the driver and I see things that I
don't think would pass.

There are many lines that exceed 79 characters per line. There are
some evaluations that have no white space and others that have too
much white space on one side or the other and sometimes both.

Now concerning the driver.

The driver downloads from and uploads to my LT-725UV OK. I programmed
my local 146.640- repeater into the top (A) VFO and the frequency
displayed is 146.63974 MHz. I remember having this issue when I added
the VFO frequency settings to the UV-5R driver. I believe I was told
is has something to do with the error introduced when converting
between binary and decimal numbers. You can look at the uv5r.py driver
to see what I had to do to resolve this issue.
