<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>David,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Do you have an image file with the
frequencies?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Like a CSV file, or a spreadsheet
file?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I think it works best to just import such a file
with the frequencies rather than copy and paste.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>So if you have a file with the frequencies, and
it's a CSV file, do an import and pull them in that way, and then upload that to
your radio.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Jim and Tom,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Thank you for your helpful, informative and welcoming responses.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I’m pretty sure that I understand everything you’ve written.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I’m using an HP laptop running W7. I have a second HP laptop running W10
but I prefer the other machine.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I’ve already tried to copy and paste the marine vhf stock configuration but
I highlighted all rows, select all, copy, paste into a file, new. It didn’t work
but I’ll try again one row at a time.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I’m still having issues with file/save and file/save as. As I click on
either action, the screen simply reverts to the open page. Sounds pretty simple
but I haven’t yet found a way to save/change name as save!</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Hopefully. The YouTube video will help. I’m now away from home for the
weekend but based upon your feedback I’ll be enthusiastically trying again on
Monday!</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Kind regards</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>David</DIV>

<P>Look at the tab for the file you have open that you're trying to write to
the radio. If it says something like "Generic CSV" a the beginning, you can't
write that to a radio. <BR></P>
<P>The problem is that you're opening a new file, or at least that's what you
said you were doing in your original email. The only files you can write to a
radio are files that were created by reading from a radio. The name on the tab
should be the model of the radio you pulled it from. Save an unmodified
version, then import the stock config into the file you got from the radio,
save it again with a new name, then write it to the radio.</P>
<P>If "Upload to radio" is blank, it's most likely the tab you have open
didn't come from a radio.</P>
<P>Check out this youtube video - <A class=moz-txt-link-freetext

<P>At 4:40, he has just pulled the config from the radio.</P>
<P>At 7:00, he starts importing VHF channels</P>
<P>At 11:00, he uploads the file he just finished downloading and modifying
back to the radio.<BR></P><PRE class=moz-signature cols="72">Tom Henderson</PRE>

<DIV>Your description is pretty much what I’m trying, unsuccessfully, to
achieve.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I don’t seem able to either “file, save” or “file, save as”. Clicking
on either doesn’t appear to work. When I’m on the page with “stock
configuration” the “send to radio” option is greyed out.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I’ve tried a few times but always the same result. My next step is
probably to download the chirp software and try again. Otherwise, I’m
stuck!</DIV>

<P>Sounds like you're missing a step. Once you've downloaded successfully
from the radio, save that file and keep it in case you ever want to go
back to the settings it came out of the box with. Next, with that file
still open, select "radio" from the top menu, "Import from stock config,"
and then select the UHF channels you need. Now save the modofied file
under a new name, and with that file still open, try writingback to the
radio.</P>

<P>Hope that helps!</P>
