[chirp_users] how to respond on /issues/ page

[Guy Teague]

thanks dan! yep, i can tell at a glance that the daily build covers exactly
the frequency range of my uv6x, but not near the freq range of my uv6d.
does this mean i shouldn't use chirp with the uv6d until this has been
resolved? or does it just mean that channels outside the 'official' range
won't get transferred?

and i will indeed mention this matter to my vendor (a local shop with very
friendly owners). in fact, their ebay ad and their website are both wrong
as to the model variant of the uv6d they were selling. i was most
pleasantly surprised to get a model with a much wider freq range (and yeah,
i know that isn't the bonus-without-caveats some people think it is) than
the one they were advertising.
