csv files are either for Chirp, RT Systems software, or Icom (tested with IC-705)
The RT Systems files might work on any RT Systems software. They has been successfully tested with Yaesu FT-60, FTM-7250, Explorer QRZ-1 and other radios. If you find a radio this doesn't work with, feel free to contact me off line; I'll see what needs to be changed.

Note: it is very easy to add new formats. If you have software that won’t accept one of these three, please contact me at KK7NNS au gmail.com; it’s easier to add a new output format than it would be for you to manually enter the data,
Each subdirectory contains some or all of the following:
- 2m.csv ACS frequencies, 2m band
- 220.csv ACS frequencies, 1.25m band
- 70cm.csv ACS frequencies, 70cm band
- 6m.csv ACS frequencies, 6m band
- data.csv ACS frequencies, data
- narrow.csv upcoming narrow band frequencies
- noaa.csv NOAA weather frequencies
- hub.csv Seattle emergency hub GMRS frequencies
- Hub_GMRS.csv Same, for GMRS radios.
- murs.csv Multi-Use Radio Service
Tools/ Various programs to convert ICS217 spreadsheet to code plugs
My own preferred workflow is as follows:
- Download current radio settings into a tab within the software.
- Load the csv(s) into a second tab within the software.
- Copy-paste rows from the second tab into the tab for my radio.
- Upload back to the radio.
This process lets you store csv entries into whatever memories you like in the radio, and lets you update the radio without losing other data. The "-s" option is not needed if you do it this way.
See the README files in the Chirp/ and RT/ subdirectories for more detailed instructions.
