Chirp sort of kind of works, **if** you:
1. Use the mouse cursor or JAWS cursor or whatever to read the screen a lot;
2. Learn the hot keys, especially to read from/save to the radio, import/export, etc. and
3. Export to a .csv, modify your channel settings in Excel, save back to .csv, and then import back into Chirp.
By no means ideal, and it is not likely to change.
