[chirp_users] QYT KT8900 startup channels

Radio: QYT KT8900 (no "D" - just the KT8900)
CHIRP Version: daily-20181018 (latest I believe)
OS: macOS 10.13.6 (but shouldn't matter in this case)

In CHIRP, under Settings > Work Mode Settings you are able to specify "MR A
channel" and "MR B channel" as the default channels your radio starts on
(assuming the VFO/MR mode is set to Channel). This has worked for me
previously - but a while ago something changed. I don't have an exact
timeline - in the last 6 months or less I believe.

Screenshot for reference:

MR A channel setting is still "respected", but no matter what I put in MR B
channel the radio starts up on channel 1. I tried changing it to other
channels (and saving then uploading) multiple times but there is no change.
When I change MR A it gets applied, but not MR B.

Any ideas? I went back and grabbed the oldest .img file I had (from May)
and it is still happening, so I don't think it's an issue with the image
file.

Anyone with a QYT KT8900 that can test this as well?

Thanks!
