[chirp_users] Only 99 channels with Kenwood TM-281A

[Nigel A. Gunn G8IFF/W8IFF]

You're right. I just tried it.
On my TM-271, it appears to be menu 17 on the radio settings. You might have to power cycle or reset the radio from menu 99.

I hope that would be an area where I could increase the number of channels to the specified 200 that is supposed to be available.  It's like the radio is stuck on alphanumeric mode.
