Anything is possible, but I personally don't have time to add this extra function

Programming takes a very long time even for the most simple functions.


BTW.

Having 997 channels seems unusual

I have only around 170 channels, and this includes all marine channels, all UHF CB channels, all DMR and FM repeaters within 250km of me, and also my hotspot channels

I have 50 prefeerred channel like you, but travelling all italy I have added all repeater DMR + Analogic and adding to the zones without a search feature is difficult.
But anyway it's ok and thanks again

you could make more zones. Geographical and any other kind of organisation like moto netowrks. No reason why a channel can't be in more than one zone.
Then You'd only have to manually step through a zone instead of 997 channels ???

There is a new release of the CPS

https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/ ... 2020.10.26

There was a bug when importing channels, which I have now fixed, and hence needed to make a new release.

No worries

Unfortunately, because the way that the existing code (from the official CPS) handles CSV exports and imports, it has problems when things don't match when it converts the text e.g. NONE or N/A to the internal value which is 0

This also completely prevents CSV files exported under a different language being imported, it can't match any of the texts and possibly not even the column names.

IMHO, it would have been better if the CSV exports and imports were always in English, or something else which was language independent, but it would take a long time for me to modify it to handle this, and I've already got far more things I need to do, than time to do them.

BTW.

I'd love to integrate Colin (G4EMLs) tools into the CPS, but they are written in VB, not C#, and so even though Colin emailed he his source code, last year, it would take a long time for me to re-write it all in C# and test it all.
