[chirp_users] Baojie and Step problems

[Andreu Bassols Alcón]

Hi,

I've checked specs and 218 supports those steps. In fact, in Chirp in the
settings (after downloading settings as bj218 from the transceiver) I can
set the step to 6.25, 12.5, etc. So Chirp lets you set that step on config.
But not on the moment you specify a frequency multiple of that step.
