[chirp_users] FT-8900 Banks and Settings missing

[Jardy]

The 8900 does not have banks. Also, the 8800 can have separate programming on the left and right sides, but the 8900 only has one set of memories. One side can do all 4 bands, the other side can only do uhf and vhf. You can read about the differences in the 8800 and 8900 manuals. So, basically, CHIRP is properly set up.
