Patrick - Thank you for the files. I found 2 problems... both problems are within the image file from the Wouxun Programming SW (CPS), which seems to be corrupted, and not with the Chirp Beta1.4 driver.
When CHiRP displayed an Error in the channel memory location the issue was always one of the following 2 issues:
Invalid Value stored in the Channel Power Level setting. The 935G uses values 0,1,2 for Low,Med,High. However the CPS was writing a value of 3.
The 2nd problem was a corrupted Rx or Tx tone value in the CPS file. I saw 2 different types of corruption.
I have attached the corrected CPS file of your file for you to try and confirm proper operation with CHiRP.
I have also attached screen shots of the Rx/Tx Tone errors that I saw in the CPS channels.

Thanks Mel, I'm only just now getting back to this... and trying it with your 1.6 beta. Some other things I noticed: Using your corrected CPS file, I reset my radio, wrote it to the radio, then downloaded to CHIRP. I still had errors on many channels, but those channels all showed "Middle" for TX Power in the CPS. Setting them to Low or High in CPS, writing to radio, then downloaded to CHIRP, they were fine. If I set them back to "Middle" in CPS and repeat, the resulting CHIRP download properly showed "M" in power. Another thing I noticed was that I had some MURS channels in there, and the CPS showed 151.820 for TX, which of course is "illegal" in the radio; when I click the field in CPS, I see None and GPS frequencies as available options (as one would expect).
How did it get this way, well I must admit: Last year I was messing around with a KGUV8H beta module for CHIRP to be able to rearrange and mass-edit channels. I would imagine it wrote some stuff that probably doesn't make sense on a KG935G.
As you mentioned, neither of these has anything to do with your module. These are clearly flaws within CPS ... which is even more reason I totally appreciate your effort (And support from BuyTwoWayRadios) to make this device work with CHIRP!
