Is there a combination of key presses that will show the firmware

If not, is there a software means of getting it?


I'd like to know what I'm getting into.

I wasn't aware the radio is flashable. *I have one.


From what little I know, it isn't. I saw a reference to an IC-r75-12
somewhere in reference to a version number.

I can't find any reference in the manual to the usually non functioning
'synch' function either.

I can get this set for a fair price, but I need to know more about it
before committing. The search for decent Linux control programs is also
ongoing.

Read Icom IC-R75-12 Shortwave Receiver
http://www.universal-radio.com/CATAL...rxvr/0175.html
-source- Universal-Radio.Com

The 'original' Icom IC-R75-02 Shortwave Receiver
included "Synchronous AM Detection" feature.

The newer Icom IC-R75-12 Shortwave Receiver
is CW, AM and SSB plus FM minus the AM-Sync.
