You download from radio #2 into CHIRP (or load a previously saved image from it)
Click File -> Import and then change the file mask from [CHIRP Files
(*.chirp)[ to [CHIRP Radio Images (*.img)]
Locate and loat the saved image from radio #1.
Make any needed changes in the Import From File menu and then click
the [OK] button.

If that is too much, then just download from both radios to create 2
tabs. Then copy-and-past the channels from the tab from radio #1 to
the tab from radio #2.
