[chirp_users] Wouxun KG-UV6X, is it possible to unlock menu function?

[Jim Unroe]

Rob,

I don't have an X model (I have a D model) so I have no way of testing
this. But you should be able to access the Settings->All Settings menu of
CHIRP and then enable the top setting which is "Menu Available". Upload the
change back to your radio and the Menus should now be available.
