[chirp_users] UV-5R / BF-F8+

[Bob Burkett]

I seem to now have CHIRP programming issues worked out finally!... but now
I have another issue!

While monitoring a service on 453.5625 I get bleed over from a service on
453.5500. I have entries set for NFN (narrow FM),

Any ideas from anyone? Setting or bad radio??

Thanks,
Bob/KF3BY
