Bug #4709
closedUnable to set amateur frequencies on TK-360
100%
Description
I was given a Kenwood TK-360 (4-channel model) at the last Stone Mountain Hamfest. Finally got a USB cable and hooked it up to my desktop machine and downloaded the radio to CHIRP. When I try to change the frequency of any of the memory channels to the local (DeKalb County, GA) repeaters, I get the following error:
"Pasted memory 1 is not compatible with this radio because:
Frequency 440.700000 is out of supported range
Tx freq 445.700000 is out of supported range"
I get the same types of error for the other three frequencies, as well: 442.200000, 444.250000, & 444.900000.
How can I override the "supported range" to update my radio? I'm using CHIRP daily-20170406, (GTK 2.24.30, PyGTK 2.24.0, Python 2.7.12) under Linux Mint

Obviously, someone has programmed "unsupported" frequencies in this radio already.
Kenwood specifications say 450-470MHz is the frequency range for this radio.
