Hi Glen,
It would be much easier to diagnose if you would attach your CSV file or at the minimum paste the lines surrounding line 81 into your post to the mailing list.

Hi Jim, Here it is for you or anyone else to have a look to see if you can fix it up for me. It is attached.

Thanks Glenn. You are apparently using classic CHIRP because your CSV file loads into CHIRP-next without any errors. I assume that this is because classic CHIRP works better with a screen reader.
The problem is that there are too many fields with no data. There are many fields in classic CHIRP that cannot be empty. Only "Name", "Duplex", "Tone", "Skip", "Comment", "URCALL", "RPT1CALL", "RPT2CALL" and "DVCODE" can have null values. All the rest must contain something and it must be of the correct type (string, integer, etc).
The easiest way to "fix" your CSV file was to simply load it into CHIRP-next and then immediately save it back out to a different CSV file (attached).

I am limited on the systems that I can run chirp next on. I also have a raspberry pi next to my Kenwood. I suspect that I cannot connect to it with chirp next over my home network. So, I'm wondering if chirp next is in the raspberry pi's repository, or if I have to try and install it by hand.
