Strange... I couldn't find it on the HRO site. But it exists. Here's the listing on the Amateur Electronics Supply web site: CSD800 ICOM CLONING SOFTWARE; ID800 $50.99 You'll also need a cable: OPC478 ICOM PC RS232C CABLE $47.99 AES isn't the only supplier - just the first I tried after looking at the HRO site. I've got some video on my web site about programming D-STAR radios: http://arvideonews.com/dstar-programming/index.html The ID-800 is confusing and difficult to program manually, but it can be done! 73, Gary KN4AQ ARVN: Amateur Radio//Video News Gary Pearce KN4AQ 508 Spencer Crest Ct.
