Excel has a bug that when there is an empty cell or cells at the end
or a row, it can drop one or more commas. From the point of the first
missing comma, the data is misaligned with the columns. My guess is
that if you open the CSV file up in a text editor you will see that
there is at least 1 comma missing.

I think a workaround is to simply type a single character into the
RPT2CALL cell of each row. Unless your radio uses RPT2CALL the value
should be ignored for your radio. And if your radio uses RPt2CALL,
then you probably don't have this issue.
