<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>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>

Thanks for the response, Tom, much appreciated.

<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>

I've just bought a Baofeng UV-5R III and I'd like to use
