Mike, I'm getting the same results. I keep trying to download new drivers. I deleted Chirp three time and re-downloaded. Still doesn't work for a .csv or .img , etc...

I am trying to program a Baofeng UV82L.

I compiled a csv file with all the necessary parameters but if I try to import it I get a "UNKNOWN FORMAT" error message.

If I open OPEN the file from within CHIRP and I select either UV82HP or UV82 format, none of the information is there.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Mike,

You can't just make a CSV formatted the way you want it. It needs to be in a format that CHIRP understands. Export the channels from your radio and then use that as a template for how it needs to be formatted and for what the values should look like.

Another thing you could do is attach your CSV file so it could be examined for errors.

Hey Jim,

Is the radio connecting at all, can you see the settings? Also, it is always best to export a csv file first, that way you know it is in the correct format. The you can add settings and it works a lot easier that way.

Good luck.
