Does this mean that D4W will soon be able to read an ICOM 7600/7700/7800 split VFO? Oh, Please Please Please!!!

This firmware update also enables a transceiver control application to transmit CW from text without any external interface. I extended DXLab's Commander (transceiver control) and WinWarbler (digital modes, CW transmission, phone voice keyer) components to exploit these new capabilities. Recently, Icom has released new firmware updates for the IC-7600 and IC-7700 that include both the "read split" and "transmit CW from text" capabilities described above. Jay W5JAY has confirmed that the current release of Commander follows changes to Split made from his IC-7700's front panel. If you have an IC-7600, have updated its firmware to the new version, and have tested this capability with Commander, please let me know. I'd also appreciate hearing from anyone who has used WinWarbler to transmit CW using the the new firmware on an IC-7600 or IC-7700. DXLab applications are completely free, and available via www.dxlabsuite.com 73, Dave, AA6YQ ---- End forwarded message ---- -- Dick Flanagan K7VC [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
