Default rig mem??


greatful for everyone's trying to help out

ok i was told i am using the correct terminology however it's kinda
obscure so not many know about it

and i am not smart enough to describe it better i'll take another stab

when a radio's memory is addressed for programming by a pc, it's
typically done what is know as 'clone mode' an example of this would be
any yaesu 2m radio(best as i know)

contrasted to the tm-700's method of programming via it's programming
port to pc

yeah all radios have software that might accomplish the same thing but
do so via different metods of addressing or accessing the memory

i know of a software developer that writes fantastic software for the
apple he can only modify drivers to work with his program for radio's
that can be programmed via means other than clone mode

unf there is not alot of ham software outthere for mac's and only one
that allows radio memory programming for 2m/440 etc

sooo

the current software has drivers for rigs that are now almost disco, or
kinda a bit expensive tm700 a litte much for me iwas hoping say to get
a tm271 or simular but looking thru the manuals/broshures of some
newer rigs and it dosn't say a thing about it's memory access

if i find such a radio he'll write the drivers for me

hoping that sombody might be able to point me in the right direction

I guess you are going to have to tell us what kind of programming you
are talking about. When you "clone" memories, you hook two similar
radios together by cable and transfer the data from one to the other.
We are talking about using a computer to transfer the memories, which
has nothing to do with cloning per se. My TM-D700, which I assume is
what you mean by TM-700, is no different from any other radio that is
programmed by computer.

thanks for the responce and not to sound rude, but i am very aware of
that fact, from the below,

however what i am looking for is a specific method of programming,
communicating to the radio via means other than cloaning mode commands
i need to find out witch rig's 2/440 have that specifically as an
option

the software i need to use, is not comptable w/rigs that program via
cloan"" mode


if anyone knows i'd really appreciate the help i know some rigs do it
only found the 2 below

tnx
