It's inverted from what the radio expects; If set to VFO in cps, the radio comes up in channel mode, if set to CH in cps, the radio comes up in VFO mode.

Jarvis,

Thanks for reporting this obscure bug. Try this attached modified TD-H8 driver to see if it fixes the issue.

Please use the LoadingTestModules process to test out the modified driver and report any findings here.

This is a simple one-line code change to reverse the order of the settings literals. As a side note this inversion bug also effects the TD-H3 so this fix is relevant for that model too.

Yes indeed, that fixed the problem!

Thank you!

I can't believe how FAST you fixed it. Impressive!

If you fell like contributing by all means jump in and get your feet wet. You shouldn't have any problem with the Python coding. The learning curve will be in the git workflow to get your changes merged into master successfully.

Easy Fixes like this one would have been perfect for a first try!

A git Pull Request has been created to get these changes merged into master and the next CHIRP build.

The PR also contains another commit that changes the sense of the FM "Forbid Receive" setting heading short-text. I noticed that this was reversed too and the setting actually allowed received signals to interrupt FM reception instead of blocking an interruption.

Thanks, Fred
