Description

When using Chirp to program Baofeng GT-3WP, the name for the channel is limited to 6 characters while the radio supports 7 characters. This is caused by the incorrect assignment of class variable "LENGTH_NAME" in "chirp/drivers/baofeng_wp970i.py". Simply adding "LENGTH_NAME = 7" in the "GT3WP" class in "chirp/drivers/baofeng_wp970i.py" (after line 899) fixed this problem. The result works well with GT-3WP radio.
