Actually it's writing to the EEPROM in the radio, but yeah, same 
problem.  It'll eventually wear out.  There's no easy way around it 
until I can get them to update the radio firmware, but it's not 
field-upgradeable in the current version.

It'd be interesting to know if the radio's processor keeps the 
configuration cached in RAM while it's on.  If so, it wouldn't matter if 
the EEPROM wore out.  Maybe I'll have to try desoldering the chip.
