oops, naturally, right after i posted i amended my google search parameters and found bug reports #35 and #51. these reports seem to address a couple of my issues, but not why i&#39;m seeing them if the bugs have been resolved. it does look like one bug might have been abandoned. <div>
<br></div><div>is it possible some errant code crept back in after these issues were fixed?</div><div><br></div><div>oh, and i also found some references to those unknown columns, but no explanation of what they are. but they don&#39;t seem to be pertinent to the th6 since i found references to them in two other radios and some &#39;test.csv&#39; files as well. so i&#39;ll pretend they aren&#39;t there unless i hear otherwise!</div>

<br></div><div>anyway, the first thing i did since this radio works with chirp completely unlike any of my other radios in a sort of &#39;real time&#39; mode (it almost seems like virtual control is already 95% working and i was surprised that it wasn&#39;t implemented nor was a menu config function) was to read the radio and export out to csv. but i don&#39;t understand what the last 3 columns are: | URCALL |, | RPT1CALL | and  | RPT2CALL |. granted, it&#39;s a new radio and my first kenwood in many years, but i&#39;ve been through the manual pretty thoroughly twice now and did a google search as well and can&#39;t come up with any info on these columns. it could always be some function(s) that i would never use and i glossed over them.</div>

<div><br></div><div>also, on a more serious note, when i tried to import some info from one of my other radios (after formatting it for the f6a), chirp refused to process the lines that had mode as &#39;FMN&#39;. at first i was surprised as i had (ass)umed that the kenwood would do narrow fm, and in fact it does support nfm, but not at the same time as regular fm--a disappointing fact but at least the mode is there to activate. i think this would be an easy fix in that i could just change all instances of NFM to FM in my csv file, but i was curious as to why chirp would not recognize this mode from this radio?</div>
