Is there a way to change a value, in my case power level, for many memory locations without having to do one at a time?
Thanks!
Yes, it can be done. It is in the archives, but I do not know when it was last asked. I do not have the procedure memorized.

Yes. I suggest that you default to the majority amount of a power level and then change those that are the lower amount of frequencies. Simplex frequencies would need higher power generally.

Yes. Say you want to edit memories 3 through 7, 9 and 20 so that they will TX the 123.0 Hz CTCSS tone and the power level will be LOW. Here is how you would go about it.
The first order of business is to download from your radio and save the new tab to a CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) file. Then no matter what happens, you can load this saved image back into your radio and start over. ;-)
Now let's get started by selecting the memory rows to be edited.
1. click memory row 3 (row 3 will be highlighted) 2. shift-click memory row 9 (rows 3 through 9 will be highlighted) 3. ctrl-click memory row 8 (toggles the row 8 highlight off) 4. ctrl-click memory row 20 (toggles the row 20 highlight on)
Now that we have memories 3-7, 9 and 20 highlighted, it is time to bring up the Memory Properties editor. There are 2 ways to do this.
5a. click the [Properties] button at the top of the spreadsheet style memory editor
5b. right-click one of the highlighted rows and choose "Properties" in the menu that appears
With the Memory Properties editor now open, it is time to change the 3 properties (2 for the CTCSS tone) that we want to change.
6. tick the box to the left of "Tone Mode" and change the setting to "Tone" 7. tick the box to the left of "Tone" and change the setting to "123.0" 8. tick the box to the left of "Power" and change the setting to "Low"
Once the changes have been completed, it is time to close the Memory Properties editor.
9a. click the [OK] button close the editor and keep the changes 9b. click the [Cancel] button to close the editor and discard the changes
That's it. Don't forget that some radio models have "extra" settings that can be accessed by clicking the "Other" tab in the Memory Properties editor.
