[chirp_users] COM 5

[Ryan Tourge]

Michael,

You can't upload images from other models reliably. if you save the file as
a CSV then you can import after you read your target radio. That is how I
do it with several different chirp supported models. I read the radio.
Import my master .csv file. Chirp doesn't access any band over another. It
simply manages memory and simple settings. You can program both VHF and UHF
with chirp and then write it to the radio.
