[arm-allstar] Channel Steering on Motorola RIM-Lite

[David Ranch]

Fyi, it's worth noting that Kenwood dropped the remote VFO control of 
the "Sky Command" feature on all newer V71A and D710G models.  There is 
an addendum sheet included in the V71A manual labeled "B5K-0535-00" 
about this and you can see a very small mention of this at the very top 
of page 85 at: http://manual.kenwood.com/files/B62-1926-40.pdf saying:

    "WIRELESS OPERATION" function is unavailable from serial number B8610081
