After creating my CSV file, I used a raw file viewer and did not
see any extra characters or missing characters. I am using
Excel now to edit the CSV files and they import fine. Is it
true that there has to be a default value in rToneFreq? And
what about the errors I get when there are columns with header
text but no data in the column? Could this be caused by Excel?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Yes, you need to provide appropriate defaults if
you're not editing with Chirp (when you edit a CSV with Chirp,
it will fill in all the defaults for you). Here's a quote from
the documentation I linked earlier:</p>
<p dir="ltr">"Field values must be in the original format and one
of the accepted values for the column type."</p>
<p dir="ltr">Excel is a generic spreadsheet program. If you want
to use it to edit Chirp CSV files, you will need to handle the
data validation yourself to ensure it stays in a format
compatible with Chirp. </p>
