Hi Pavel,

Thanks much for reaching out to me.  I don't believe any of these radios
have the trunking board.  I have quite a few of them and have downloaded
from them quite a few times from a Windows box.  I didn't even think about
it until working with a Linux machine recently.

It is certainly easy to reproduce as it fails every time with every TK-272G
I've tried so far on Linux/Chirp.

I've started digging into the driver a bit, but haven't made much progress
yet.  If there is something you'd recommend trying, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks again!
