I got a new MKIIG also and had not tried it but after seeing your message I went and tried. I notice that the MKIIG was not listed so I tried the 706MK2 in the radio settings, this would not work, then I thought about all the different Icom radios having different HEX addresses. I then went to my DXBase folder and opened the "Radios.ini" file in Notepad, do a Find for 706MK2 then scroll down a little and find the line with "Address = 0x4e"(I think the 4e is correct. Change this lint to read "Address = 0x58" Save the newly edited Radios.ini and now it will work using the 706MK2 radio setting. I user the fastest speed that the radio supports 19200 and 8,N,1 Hope this helps
