The DXLab Suite is free, and will control your IC-746 Pro. Besides the
usual management of frequency and mode, DXLab

- provides 10 banks of 10 memories

- can continuously display the correct settings for your tuner and/or
amplifier as a function of transceiver frequency

- can automatically switch between 3 transceivers as a function of
frequency

- provides comprehensive logging with automatic capture of
transceiver frequency and mode, QSL card/label generation, real-time
upload to eQSL.cc, download of eQSL.cc and LotW confirmations, award
tracking, progress reporting, etc.

- decodes all PSK31 or PSK63 QSOs within a 3.5 khz band segment,
continuously displaying a list of heard callsigns for one-click
selection; one more mouse click will QSY your transceiver to put the
QSO on a prespecified optimal audio offset

- provides soundcard RTTY via the included MMTTY engine and can
optionally provide a second RTTY channel for diversity decoding via
an external modem (KAM, PK232, HAL, etc); as with PSK, the
transceiver can be QSY'd to move a RTTY QSO to a prespecified optimal
audio offset within the passband

- captures DX spots from up to 6 sources (telnet clusters, a local
packet cluster, DX Summit), merges these in real time to provide one
entry per spotted station with no duplicates, and QSYs your
transceiver to the correct frequency, mode, and split when you double-
click on an entry

- plots DX spots on a world map; double-clicking on a plotted spot
QSYs your transceiver to the correct frequency and mode

- lets you create a list of IARU/NCDXF HF beacons, and QSYs your
transceiver to monitor each beacon in sequence

The above list is limited to functionality related to transceiver control.
There is much more...

Comprehensive documentation is available online and can be reviewed
without first installing the software. See www.qsl.net/dxlab for
additional information and documentation, downloading, and
installation hyperlinks.
