A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily)
follows:

Changes for Build #474
[Tom Hayward <tom at tomh.us>] Fix radio drivers with invalid tuning step lists. #4689

New step list sources:
IC-V82/U82: manual
VX-5: radio menu
VX-7: manual

[Tom Hayward <tom at tomh.us>] [THD72] Fix PEP8 regression from #1611.

[Tom Hayward <tom at tomh.us>] For radios without tuning steps, test 10 KHz down from the edge. #4689

This should be compatible with virtually any radio.

[SASANO Takayoshi <uaa at mx5.nisiq.net>] Add IC-P7 support. This is Japanese model of IC-P7A, ticket New Model #1947.
I hope IC-P7A/IC-E7 will work.

Supported features
* Regular Memory (CH 0 to 999) editing
  - Bank settings (Bank, Bank Index, Bank Name)
  - DTCS settings (DTCS code, DTCS polarity)
  - Frequency (0.495000-999.990000MHz), Mode, Offset, Tuning step settings
  - Memory Name setting
  - CTCSS tone setting (Tone, TSQL)

Not supported features:
* Train SQL setting in memory
* Common radio settings (Beep, Display, Bank Link, RF power, etc...)
* Scan Edge CH, Auto Write CH, TV CH, CALL CH editing

[Dale Tyler <chirp16 at tylerent.com>] [ft857] FIx exception due to wrong data type Fixes #4239
Fixes a problem with dig_disp (Menu 036) and dig_shift (Menu 039) where the entered
value would be mutiplied by 256 and thus would likely cause an exception due to a
range error. For example, a value of 30 would be interpreted (incorrectly) as 768
which is out of the acceptable range -300 <= x <= 300.

[Tom Hayward <tom at tomh.us>] [UV-B5] Revert TX inhibit feature, because the trick only works on b-band. #837

On a-band, this TX inhibit trick casues the radio to transmit spurious
emissions on multiple frequencies.
