I have tried changing the column headers to match those in the stock files. When I do it seems to recognize the file but it then says no channels found. If I change the location column back to channel it does not recognize the file. Why can't find any channels? Does the order of the column matter? Here are the column headers: Location Frequency Offset Duplex Mode Name Show Name Tone Mode Tone DCS Tx Power Skip Step Thanks for the help, Jeff -------------------------------------------- On Wed, 2/1/17, Benton benton@siletzbay.com wrote:

If you

share the file, I can point out why it's unrecognized. It most

the data in those columns is of the wrong format.

'Back in the day' I thought one of the issues with using Excel to process csv file and Chirp was that Excel tended to truncate trailing commas for empty fields whereas Chirp was a stickler for those being in

place to make the columns line up correctly.

Am I misremembering or have either of those issues been improved?
