HI Roland, When I spend some radio time this weekend I send them to you.
There are two sets of macros. One for HRD for the radio commands, then a set in DM780 to use them. They are not perfect macros, but they work for me. I was just happy that I figured them out, I kinda programmed them with the hunt and peck method. If anyone else on the list wants a copy send me a note and I will send them to you also. I would like to be able to give a little back to this list as I get way more from all you gents.
