Simply import as a cSV, do your editing, then export back to a CSV file. Compare the original to the new edited version to make sure the same number of commas are in place on the right lines. BTW, I have already tried this on my windows box using excel and a program specifically designed for the Baofeng radio. So, it should work the same way with chirp as both that program and cHIRP should read or write CSV files in the same way.

For Windows you would need to download and install the older Prolific v3.2.0.0 device driver. https://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php For macOS you would have to purchase a 3rd party device driver (Catalina and earlier.

For Windows you would need to download and install the older Prolific v3.2.0.0 device driver. https://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php For macOS you would have to purchase a 3rd party device driver (Catalina and earlier. No Big Sur support yet.). https://www.mac-usb-serial.com/ Linux doesn't need this extra bit of TLC because the device drivers are open source (and don't come from the Prolific company).

The Kenwood had the chronic screen failure years ago that I had a weird hair to fix, and did with success! Now I want to update the programming. I found a functioning XP laptop and I've jumped through 10k hoops getting my modern Yaesu/ Prolific USB cable to talk to WInXP, but I got that to work finally (with a deeply buried legacy driver)... now I'm trying to install CHIRP on on the XP laptop so I can import my current .csv file and put it on the Kenwood. I get: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem" (it doesn't). I think a legacy version (2004'ish?) of CHIRP might be the thing, but I don't know where to find it on the CHIRP website. Conversely, I have the ancient Kenwood MCP_V7 software successfully installed on the XP, but it doesn't seem to import anything at all. Not sure the point of software that only reads the radio without the ability to import data to upload, but whatever. If anyone knows how to get a .csv file into that it would get the job done just as well. Cheers, JP.

It might be worth trying to see if your programming cable will work with it. Just a thought.....JohnOn Wed, Mar 24, 2021 at 12:18 AM JP Bernier <jp.bernier@gmail.com> wrote: Hi, I have an old (ancient) Kenwood TM-V7A that I've programmed in the past with a long-dead WinXP laptop. The Kenwood had the chronic screen failure years ago that I had a weird hair to fix, and did with success! Now I want to update the programming. I found a functioning XP laptop and I've jumped through 10k hoops getting my modern Yaesu/ Prolific USB cable to talk to WInXP, but I got that to work finally (with a deeply buried legacy driver)... now I'm trying to install CHIRP on on the XP laptop so I can import my current .csv file and put it on the Kenwood. I get: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem" (it doesn't). I think a legacy version (2004'ish?) of CHIRP might be the thing, but I don't know where to find it on the CHIRP website.
