I just figured it out. I missed the Edit->Delete. It works great. Thanks, everyone!
Thank you and Shalom.

I tried that previously. It does remove the frequency, but if you go through the keypad and program that memory slot with a new frequency, it will keep the old "name" that war originally in that memory location.

Brad,
If you don't want a channel in the radio, you don't program it. Using you example of channel 0, 3 and 4, here is what you do.
- Click on any memory Loc number to highlight that row
- Press Ctrl-A to highlight all 128 memory rows
- Ctrl-click on row 0 to un-highlight it. Repeat for rows 3 and 4.
- Press the Delete key to erase all data from the highlighted rows
(all except 0, 3 and 4) 4. Upload to your radio.

Hi Jim and thank you for the speedy reply. I've succeeded in making a new .img file but I'm still unable to do the channel skip as I once
did.
Setting channels as 0.000000 tel:0000000 results in an error
message. I'm trying to
make this radio as easy to use as possible and eliminate any unused channels and this new memory layout makes it more challenging than
less.
Do you have any ideas on how to narrow down the radio to just 3
channels
and no more?

Baofend has changed the memory layouts of these radios more than once of the last 3+ years. Images from a radio with one memory layout must not be uploaded into a radio with another memory layout. So CHIRP no long allows you to upload an image file into a radio unless a 14 bytes of the firmware version exactly match.
- Load the image from your old radio into CHIRP.
- Download from your new UV-82 into CHIRP.
- Copy and paste the channels from the "old" tab to the "new" tab.
- Upload the "new" tab to your UV-82.

Dear fellow Chirp'ers:
I am trying to program in a few channels while leaving some
channels blank.
I was able to do this with a version of Chirp from 2014 but I
recently tried
to upload my old .img to a new UV-82 and was met with a firmware incompatibility message. In my new .img I set the channels I want
to use (0,
3, and 4) and want the rest of the channels to be completely
unavailable (if
you are on channel 0 and press the up arrow then you immediately
go to 2
having skipped 1). I thought the way to do this was to was to set the frequency to 0.000000 tel:0000000 but I get an error message
about being out of
reference. I also tried to use a CSV file to import and saw just
the few
channels I need but this didn't result in the radio only having
those three
channels. I am including a screenshot of my old .img in hopes this
can be
guiding.
I thank you for your time and assistance.
Sincerely,
B Stone
