	be used as a source to transfer frequen-
	cies to the SMP. The 1st column of 10
	rows in Excel can be base TX frequen-
	cies and the 2nd column of 10 rows can
	be the RX frequencies. This 2 x 10 array
	of numbers is then selected and copied to
	the clip board. Now "Paste Frequencies"
	may be used to paste the 2 x 10 array of
	frequencies to the SMP. The frequencies
	of the base stations read from the file
	must be within the bands set for the
	bases in the SMP.
