Merge two columns in timetable?

I'm merging a number of .csv files into one big timetable. Each of the .csv files represents one day's data from a radio station - one column for frequency, one column for amplitude. I'd like for each station to have its own frequency column and its own amplitude column in the final timetable, but since I am adding the columns to the timetable one file at a time using the synchronize() function I wind up with multiple columns for each.
Here's the for loop I'm generating to create the timetable. The original files are named analysis_XXXXXX - Callsign.csv, where XXXXX is the date and Callsign is the station identifier.
for j = 1:length(Files)
% Extract date and call from filename.
meta = extractBefore(FileNames(j), '.csv')
meta = split(meta, ' - ')
date_recorded = char(extractAfter(meta(1), 'analysis_'))
day = str2num([date_recorded(1:2); date_recorded(3:4); date_recorded(5:6)])
start = datetime([2000+day(1) day(2) day(3) 0 0 0]);
Call = meta(2);
foo = readtable(FileNames(j), 'Range','A:E');
foo.Properties.VariableNames = [{'UTC'},{'Freq'},{'FreqErr'},{'Vpk'},{'dBV_Vpk_'}];
foo=table2timetable(foo);
foo.UTC = foo.UTC + start;
foo.Properties.VariableNames = strcat(foo.Properties.VariableNames, '-', Call);
if exist('baz')
baz = synchronize(foo, baz);
else
baz = foo;
end
end
This results in columns named, say, Freq-Station1_foo which has values for Day 1 of data collection and NaNs for Day 2, next to Freq-Station1_baz which has values for Day 2 and NaNs for Day 1. Is there a way I can merge them?

It would be easier to offer suggestions if you could share a few of your files. You can use the paperclip icon to attach them to your post.

One simple way to combine these variables is to add them together in a new timetable variable and delete the old variables.
For example, assuming the table looks something like this,
>> baz = synchronize(t1,t2)
baz =
9×8 timetable
UTC Freq_t1 FreqErr_t1 Vpk_t1 dBV_Vpk__t1 Freq_t2 FreqErr_t2 Vpk_t2 dBV_Vpk__t2

03-Jan-2020 00:00:00 10 10 8 9 8 NaN 2 2
we can do
>> baz.FreqErr = sum([baz.FreqErr_t1 baz.FreqErr_t2],2,"omitnan");
>> baz = removevars(baz,["FreqErr_t1","FreqErr_t2"])
baz =
9×7 timetable
UTC Freq_t1 Vpk_t1 dBV_Vpk__t1 Freq_t2 Vpk_t2 dBV_Vpk__t2 FreqErr

Awesome. Glad you found a workable way to build up the intended timetable. Thank you for sharing your solution with us.
One quick thing about the code in your solution:
- timetable(data.Time, data{:, Call}, 'VariableNames', Call) can be replaced with data(:,Call). This expression is creating a copy of data, but with only the variables in Call, which can be done more succinctly with table subscripting.
