The "rig settings" that are support by CHIRP varies by what setting<br>
the radio has available and by what the developer(s) for that radio<br>
decided to implement. It seems that the developer(s) for the radios<br>
you have only chose to support the most basic per-channel settings<br>
plus the bank settings.<br>
<br>
The CHIRP repository has CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) files saved there<br>
for many of the CHIRP supported radios models. All you have to do is<br>
download a few of the many images (106) for the most popular radio<br>
models. Loading any of them into your copy of CHIRP will allow you to<br>
see the "rig settings" that are supported by each image.<br>
<br>
Loading the image for the BTech UV-5X3 would demonstrate CHIRP's<br>
support for this radio by displaying 6 tabs of settings (nearly every<br>
feature that can be manipulated using software).<br>
