</div>No, banks in CHIRP are bins to which memories can be assigned, which<br>
doesn't match the concept in your radio. Your radio does it the way<br>
Kenwood radios do (which I suspect is a function of the fact that those<br>
radios all seem to stem from a stolen Kenwood design). I would recommend<br>
you just number the memories 1-256, and then use the "special memory"<br>
functionality to add the FM channels as FM01..FM25.<br>
<div class="im"><br></div></blockquote><div><br>If the memories are numbered 1-256, would there be a way to designate that 1-128 are in one "bank" and 129-256 are in another? The radio will not let you access memories in a different bank, so to access those memories you have to perform a key sequence to switch to the other bank. Someone may be confused when they can't access any memory above 128. I will take a look at the "special memory" functionality for the FM radio memories.<br>

<br>
</div>Same as above: add them as "special memories". Look at some of the more<br>
complete Icom drivers for examples.<br>
