[DSTAR_DIGITAL] Icom ICF Files
Can a Icom 91AD ICF file be used with a 80AD file? Are the Icom ICF file compatible? Also is their a website that people post there ICF files? John N2GYN
Re: [DSTAR_DIGITAL] Icom ICF Files
ICF files really only make sense in a local area. The best place to get local icf files is by talking to local D-STAR users. You can see how to extract the data from a 91AD ICF here http://k7ve.org/blog/2007/06/csv-load-for-icom-ic-91ad/ The 880 and 80 are, to my knowledge, the only mutually compatible file format. However, since the 880/80 software has cut and paste, you can take the csv generated from the 91AD ICF (documented on my blog, URL above) and open it in a spreadsheet and cut and paste columns into the 80AD program.

Re: [DSTAR_DIGITAL] Icom ICF Files
Yes, you can load the same file into both radios, or download the file from one radio and load it in the other. That being said, it works with the Icom programming software. I can't speak for Chirp, as I haven't used it, but I would expect it to work there as well. 73 de Tim, AF1G Steve Bosshard (NU5D) bossh...@gmail.com wrote: = Are the 80D and 880 icf convertible between each other ?

Gary sent me an ID-80AD ICF file. The model data is different, but the image format appears identical. A quick tweak of the code and I can read the ID-80 ICF file just fine. I will include support for this in the next chirp beta I post. I can test that importing ID-80AD ICF files work, and that may cause full cloning to work as well, but I won't be able to test it. I can add a little bit of debug to the next version so that someone with the actual radio can log and send me that part of the exchange. -- Dan Smith dsmith#danplanet.com, s/#/@/ www.danplanet.com KK7DS
