> When entering repeater name tags from the keyboard the * V/M key on the keyboard enables the characters + - / and * to be added to a name tag. These are read and and written to the radio correctly. When editing existing or adding a new tag chirp masks these characters and they are removed from the tag. I think line 533 in ft4.py that reads 'CHARSET = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqurtuvwxyz*# "' should be CHARSET = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqurtuvwxyz*# +-/"
