Debug Log:

I read the instructions above:

Description

I got this error message: "Invalid setting value: Can't be between 179.9975-400.0000". I can enter the frequency on the radio, but not on CHIRP in the VFO boxes.

Using the latest daily as of Aug 21, 2020.

This is the tri-band version that has the look (physical shape) of the A58S, and is sold as the UV-82 III tri-band.

Other things seem to work fine.

To compare, I read the radio as the A58S, then tried to edit the VFO inputting a 220 frequency, and it came back with the same error message. In other words, the error isn't unique when CHIRP thinks the radio is only a UV-82 III, but also if it's a A58S as well.

Thanks very much for all your work!
