The trouble with TPE format is that there is no formal spec document, so the only way to validate a TPE file is to match it to something generated by Travel Plus.
For data import into Chirp, CSV format is probably best. Here's a HowTo with suggestions for working with Chirp CSV format: http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/CSV_HowTo

No, I don't have CHIRP and have never used it. Nor do I have Travel Plus (or have ever used it).
I maintain a repeater database of 25,000+ servers worldwide, integrated with google mapping. My goal is to provide file exports in as many formats as I can. So my real concern is just to provide a way to get data into the software package.
Is there any other format that would work better for imports into CHIRP? If this question has already been answered and there is some sort of FAQ, I'd be happy to read it if you can point me toward it.

TPE is a proprietary format invented by ARRL Travel Plus. Can you provide an example of this issue with a TPE file built by Travel Plus? If so, create a bug report on http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/issues

Hello,
I have a website that generates several radio programming formats, including the "Travel Plus Export" format, or TPE. A user is complaining that the CHIRP software imports all 70cm repeaters with a 0.6 Mhz offset even if the file itself shows a 5.0 Mhz offset.
Is this an issue in the software, or do I need to change something in my file format? I can provide an example export file if that would be helpful.
