[chirp_devel] Updates to ICOM IC-Vx Radios

[Kosta Arvanitis]

Hey Dan and all,

You have probably noticed that I have pushed a couple changes to support a
few older Icom handheld radios and marked them as experimental.  The
memories and banks have been mapped and the basic functionality (excluding
extra settings support) have all been added.

I have marked them experimental with an alert to users for the reason that
I do not actually have access to these radios for validation purposes,
however I am fairly certain that these drivers are functionally accurate in
their initial state.  The only action that I cannot confirm is the actual
write to the radio, which would require inherent knowledge of the specific
icf end frame marker for these models . To complete this would require
access to the unit (which I do not have) or a lucky guess (which I have
attempted).

When I get a moment I can also send along a couple manufactured image files
for these radios to be added to the test base, however real images would be
preferable (maybe someone on the list has these radios?).  But in the
meantime please advise if you have any questions or concerns with these
drivers, as they have been requested by many users in the past and may
prove useful to some.

Thanks again!
