Feature #8689
openTOUPPER()

Description
I observed that importing from RR brings in Names with lowercase letters.
This appears to be incompatible with BaoFeng.
A possible feature to "All Upper" in the Grid?

Which model? Are you editing a tab that was downloaded from your radio (or loading a file that was previously downloaded from your radio)? It would be labeled with a name such as "Baofeng UV-5R: *.img". That is exactly what happens. Type a name in lowercase and it is automatically switched to uppercase. Copy-and-past from a tab that is lower case to a tab for a Baofeng model and it is automatically switched to uppercase.
I'm going to guess that you are importing into a tab that is not compatible with any radios model (such as a Generic CSV file tab).

Perhaps I need to spend more time with the application.
I am loading a BaoFeng 82C
I did the initial download from RadioReference.
The tags from RR had upper/lower (and exceeded length - which was trimmed)
I pushed the RR data to the radio and observed and call to a lowercase letter was “blank”
I manually edited each freq to meet my needs - but thought it might be a nice feature to add if this is common?

Are you directly importing into the tab for your radio? Instead use Query data source then try copy-and-paste into the tab for your radio.
I don't have a RR account so I can test directly. But if I take one of the stock config file (which are CSV files), lowercase the names, and then copy-and-paste into a UV-82HP tab, the text is automatically set to uppercase.
