More exactly, went through is several times.  Dunno how much better it works
now, but a lot of small things like S-Meter flatness over frequency were off
a bit.  As far as sensitivity, none of the BPFs were off much, but I found
quickly that things happen without apparent reason in the software: values
magically changing to very high values.  I might have been doing it, but
damned if I can see what.  Ended up going throug the thing over and over
until the bogus entries were vanquished.  The Xtal was only off a few Hz,
did not bother diddling it.

22!  But, I am fairly sure I set everything correctly, so this is just where
things end up with this early version radio.  If anyone want the EEPROM data
to compare, I'll send it to them.
