Description

When I tried to read my UV-5R+ (BFB293 firmware) it appeared to do the read, but then gave me an error message reading "An error has occurred | Value 10 not in range 0-5". On a hunch, I went to menu 6 on my radio--the backlight timer setting--and changed it from 10 to 5. (BFB293 allows a maximum backlight setting of 10) After that, the new CHIRP build read the radio without a problem.

This does indeed allow the setting to be forced higher for the older radios. Through additional testing with my UV-5R with BFB231 firmware, I have determined that this setting can be 'forced' all the way up to 24.
