I am having trouble trying to load my Yeasu FT 8800, I get a error message each time. I downloaded the drivers for the cable and am using a MacBook Pro. Any suggestions?

I am using Excel now to edit the CSV files and they import fine. Is it true that there has to be a default value in rToneFreq? And what about the errors I get when there are columns with header text but no data in the column? Could this be caused by Excel?

Yes, you need to provide appropriate defaults if you're not editing with Chirp (when you edit a CSV with Chirp, it will fill in all the defaults for you). Here's a quote from the documentation I linked earlier:

"Field values must be in the original format and one of the accepted values for the column type."

Excel is a generic spreadsheet program. If you want to use it to edit Chirp CSV files, you will need to handle the data validation yourself to ensure it stays in a format compatible with Chirp.
