Dan I got everything working. Still had to specifically import a few channels but at least that worked this time. Is there any documentation ( wiki or otherwise) on how to use Chirp and about the different format to save in ( csv, vs chrisp vs img) ? How difficult would it be to allow something like an import of a csv to a generic radio then set the type up and do a write to the Radio. Currently I do not seem to be able to setup the type of radio except for a read from the radio. Once I have read from a radio then I can import the CSv and write back to the radio. In most of the cases I work with I am prepared to trash whatever is currently there and overwrite it with new info. Still need the read function for verifying the programming I just wrote.

Yeah, the 8800 and 8900 use the same driver in CHIRP, so I'd expect the upload process to be identical. The problem reported was with the actual uploading, which you seem to be able to do just fine.
Download from Radio seems to work fine. Uploads are not consistent. Some memory locations did not program at all, some were partially programmed ( i.e name field was messed up). This was verified with other programming software VX-6 commander.
Okay, can you file bugs (issues) on the website for these and attach .img files (and maybe screenshots as well)? If so, I'll get these resolved.
Thanks!
