Kenwood TM-V71A(e) Read radio no issue. Export to csv no issue. Write csv back to Kenwood with Import no problem
Notrepad edit of csv shows that there are several fileds with place holder data not showing in the on screen data entry display. Appear to be default tone values in not used for the current option as "tone" and such.
Trying to understand the actual visible V71A fields vs the .csv content. It appears that CHIRP places these default values such as DCS tone 023 value in unused columns as place holder and that data is not displayed in the V71A programming display.
Can someone explain the csv the behavior in inserting these placeholder values? Many Thanks george K8MYN (ex KM4PAA)
Tone Mode and Cross Mode selections determine which selective squelch columns that CHIRP pays attention to. You can look at these guides to find out how this works.

Also If you would like to see the values in the unused fields shown in the main memory editor, then you can disable "Hide unused fields" in the View menu.
