Continuously variable volume control instead of discrete steps #21

Hardware 1.10, firmware 2.27

The volume control changes volume in 16 discrete steps ("off" plus 15 audible levels).

You can change the maximum volume level in the CPS or menu, but that just changes the size of these steps.

My cheap Baofeng radios have a continuously variable volume control. This is much more pleasant and versatile.

My guess is that this is something that can't be fixed in firmware - or can it? It would be something to consider for a future hardware model.

I agree. At the moment my AT-D868UV is set for a maximum volume level of "Indoor" which is the lowest setting, and I have it on the lowest "step" and the volume is too loud for my office.
