Bug #10554
openVX-6R: "ghost" channels after switching to CHIRP-next
0%
Description
I recently modified a VX-6R image generated with CHIRP-legacy usingCHIRP-next and uploaded it to my radio. I noticed that the memory banks in my radio keep displaying references to channels that I'd moved or deleted in CHIRP-next. These channels do not appear when scrolling through the radio's channel list directly (that is, not in banks). Downloading the radio's memory back to CHIRP-next, I can see no reference to these channels. However, downloading the radio's memory to CHIRP-legacy, I can see grayed-out references to these channels in the radio's memory, as though CHIRP-next did not completely delete or move them. I've attached the radio's IMG file as well as screenshots of what I see in both CHIRP-next and CHIRP-legacy.
Note that I've seen similar behavior with an FT-60R (used CHIRP-next to modify a radio image originally generated in CHIRP-legacy, loaded into radio, ghost channels showing up). If needed, I can open a second ticket for that issue.
