Please update the attached Menu List in order to identify any changes that may have taken place with the number of menus their available choices.
I have attached a test driver module that adds the currently unknown identification string (00 00 00 36 00 20 dc 04) to the RT-470x.

That worked. I have also gone through the menu's now. Just a few updates, the version obviously, then 8.33K step with L7, and I had to add a new one, so L60 is new, that then pushed the other 2 down to 61 and 62 which I updated. Hope that helps!

Can you export that file as a pure .txt file? It appears to be HTML or word-processor output.

Do you need to renumber the menus? You said that there was a 61 and 62 above in note-2. This list only goes to 56 and there are 2 of them numbered 56.
I changed the 2nd 56 to 57 and reviewed the list. It looks like the 8.33 STEP is the only thing that CHIRP needs to add support for. So would you make 2 images? The first one with the current state that your radio is currently in. The second needs to be with STEP set to 8.33 being the only difference. Attach them both to this issue. Thanks.

Sorry for the confusion I was going off the html version I had. With the text file, line 54 was the new one 54 EDIT ANI NAME NUM.58
I will work on the image file for you shortly.

Here are the 2 image files but not sure it worked. I set the scanner to the 8.33, then read the radio which then resets the radio and it is no longer set to 8.33.

Yeah... it didn't work. Both files are identical. But I have realized that I didn't need the images in the first place. So thanks for trying.
I have added support for entering frequencies with the 8.33K step and attached the test driver. Give it a test and let me know if it is OK to submit. Thanks.
