Here's how I do it, this may be more labor intensive than necessary but it helps me maintain version control. Since I've prefer MS Excel that's my tool of choice. I do the following:
* download from the radio into Chirp, * export it as csv, * open radio csv in Excel, * copy that to a new document, * open the "merge" csv in Excel, * copy and paste from it into the new doc, * manipulate the new doc as needed, * save the new doc from Excel as a csv, * import that csv into Chirp, * save it as a .img file (saves a step later if I have reinstall), * upload the img from Chirp to the radio.

How do I merge data from a CSV file into a file read from the radio? If I import, it just overwrites the previous read data. I want to take a file with 10 channels and import a file that has 20 channels. ending up with 30 channels Can that be done in a bulk fashion or does each channel have to be copied and pasted? I know that can be done because I've done it but can't figure out how to do 20 or more in one feel swoop.
