Description
The Baofeng UV-82 supports a large character set (modified "Shift-JIS":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_JIS), but CHIRP doesn't even allow lowercase alphas.
An easy quick fix is to use chirp_common.CHARSET_ASCII for the UV-82, perhaps excluding \ and ~ (which show up as ¥ and →).
Full support involves transcoding between Unicode and the modified Shift-JIS.
Observed differences from Shift-JIS:
0x7e → (‾)
0x7f ← (DEL)
