[App_rpt-users] Channel steering

[R Dahl]

First, I must thank everyone involved with developing this system.  It has
brought me countless days of fun and frustration, all worthwhile.

FWIW, this is my arrangement with a GM300 modded to 32 channels and a
URIx.  Without the influence of the URIx the radio always reverts to the
last channel set by the CHANNEL button, not the one set via steering.  I
have not had occasion to test that in a brown-out circumstance.
Regardless, initial channel after reboot is set to #1 by simpleusb.conf,
snippet below.  Note there are five lines available from the URIx and five
available on the radio via S/W.  I have not yet bothered to define the last
16 available.  While all this seems to work fb on the bench, there will be
a camera pointed at the radio display when deployed to the mountaintop in a
few days.  I hope this helps someone and that my approach is not too
backasswards.
