Description

Not sure whether to classify this as a feature, or a bug...

The TIDRadio TD-H8 supports upper- and lower-case letters; the CPS allows lower-case entry in the Name field. CHIRP, however, does not. The attached image was downloaded from my TD-H8 after uploading from the CPS. Notice the Names are stored as mixed-case. When I change the value in a field, a pop-up appears: "Warning, Name character [first lower-case character] not supported." If I modify the Name, all alpha characters are saved in upper-case.

Can lower-case letters be added to the allowed characters list for the TD-H8 models?
