A CSV by its nature does not contain settings that "won't set well" in
another radio. But unless you already keep .CSV files saved for your
existing radios, there is not need to perform the extra step of saving
to a .CSV file. You can download from your new TYT into CHIRP and then
directly import the .IMG file from one of your Baofeng radios.
