[chirp_users] VX-7r: odd memory group behavior

[David Griffith]

I'm not sure if this is an oddity of the Yaesu VX-7r or of Chirp. 
Suppose I program my radio with Chirp to have a block of frequencies in 
MG1 and another block in MG2.  When this is written to the radio, then I 
should be able to press MONF+9 to get to the Special Memory menu, turn the 
knob to "MR Group" and press PTT and select the block I want to monitor. 
Instead I get a double beep telling me I can't do that.  However, if I 
assign some memory slot to a memory group from the radio's keypad, THEN I 
am able to select "MR Group" and monitor the group I want.  Since this 
happens only after cloning from Chirp, I'm inclined to believe this is a 
bug in Chirp.  I am currently working around this by leaving memory slot 1 
unassigned.  After I program the radio, I then manually assign slot 1 to 
memory group 1.

Has anyone else with a VX-7r noticed this behavior?
