<p>Odd that you have to give them 10 inches before they take the
mile in Metric. In Imperial you only have to give them an inch
(2.54 mm).<br>

<div dir="ltr">The rather unhelpful term 'codeplug'
originates from an EPROM based hardware key which
AMTRAK train drivers inserted into a Motorola radio in
the cab. This term pre-dates digital radios by
decades.<br>
It is the source of much confusion, and I much prefer
the term 'configuration file' which is much more
descriptive and far less obfuscating. </div>

<div>I have a Baofeng UV-82 that was

<div>When I went to turn the radio back on,
there was only a faint display visible on

<div>It looks like a series of black

nothing.</div>
