[chirp_users] Baofeng UV-6R

[stephen johnston]

i know this radio is not supported yet,
i have some info to help driver writers.

the "magic string" is: "\x50\xBB\xFF\x20\x14\x11\x22"
and the firmware is: ["HDBF230"]

i have put these into the driver, but i am now stuck with this:

---------------------------

i dont know python and cant really follow the code in the driver anyway!
