Thanks Tom, sorry, I did see this basic documentation, but did not make the connection between these procedures and the errors I was getting related to column numbers and row conversion. I guess it does answer my initial question about how to get a CSV file into an IMG file for upload to the radio.
But I could not find where it says you should delete column header text for columns that contain no data and it also does not say that the Memory Range entry on the edit window must match the number of rows you are importing; the error you get doesn't lead you make this connection. Did I miss this too?
The software is not particularly intuitive, but I guess it has to have some limitations so that it can work with the most number of radios. However, I've figured it all out for my KG-UV8D and it works great.
Regards, Chris W7CFN

P.S. Is there no one working on some basic documentation? Perhaps I can contribute something, it's been pretty painful for me.
Chris,
I'm puzzled here because I tried to reply with a link to the documentation a mere 20 minutes after your original post. In fact, that reply of mine even appears in the archive: http://intrepid.danplanet.com/pipermail/chirp_users/2016-February/009383.htm... I apoligize if I somehow messed up the email such that it was not mailed to you and the others. Here is the snippet again with a link to the documentation, explicitly detailing the procedure you couldn't find documentation for:

Scroll to "Importing the CSV file into a radio" for the procedure.
If you would like to help improve the documentation, just create an account on that site (as you would to report an issue) and ask Dan to give you wiki editor access.
