[chirp_users] CRT Micron Frequency Issue

[Paul G7BHE]

Dear all
Thank you so much for your various replies. I have my fingers crossed that CHIRP will fully cover the CRT Micron UV. It is becoming an increasingly popular radio here in Europe. 
I’ll carry on plugging away with the OEM program until such a time. 
Thanks again. Much appreciated.
