[KB6NU] Still looking for an IC-7300 memory manager
KB6NU's Ham Radio Blog /////////////////////////////////////////// Still looking for an IC-7300 memory manager Posted: 01 Jan 2019 10:54 AM PST http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/kb6nu...m_medium=email I love it when readers ask me questions. They get me to do some research and provide a lot of material for this blog. Not only that, they help me find products and resources that make amateur radio more fun. A couple of days ago, Pat, W5WTH wrote: I really enjoy the blog and your Tech and General books helped me a great deal.Â* I also really enjoy the podcast (great audio quality on that, btw), Â*THX!! In a previous post, you wrote about the lack of IC-7300 support in Chirp. Did you ever find a Chirp (or Chirp like) solution for managing the IC7300 memories? The Win4IcomSuite website says that it can display the ICOM spectrum scope. See below. I never did much more research into this, but Pats email prompted me to do a little Googling this morning. I did aÂ*search for ic7300 memory manager” and came up with a few hits: WCS-7300 Radio Programming Software from RT SystemsÂ*(https://www.rtsystemsinc.com/Articles.asp?ID=582). This looks like a nice package—as are all the RT Systems software packages—butÂ*costs $35. Win4IcomSuite (https://icom.va2fsq.com/). This program costs $50, but is a more comprehensive package than WCS-7300. Â*Think of it as HamRadioDeluxe for Icoms. An intriguing feature is that it says it “supports the built-in ICOM spectrum scopes.” I didn’t think that this was possible with the IC-7300, but I could beÂ* wrong (see image above). If so, this would be a cool feature. I’ve emailed VA2FSQ to get a clarification. VK4ADC Icom Memories Manager (https://www.vk4adc.com/web/software-...s/49-icommems). Unfortunately, while this shows up in a Google search, the website seems to be down. G3NRW IC-7300 Resources Page (http://g3nrw.net/IC-7300/?page_id=323). This page lists a lot of software, including the WCS-7300 and Win4IcomSuite, that can either be used to control the IC-7300 or can be used to do digital modes with the IC-7300. I dont think that my laptop has enough computing power to really do Win4IcomSuite justice, but I have a new tower computer on the way. If Win4IcomSuite can really do all that it says it can do, I think I’m going to pop for it when my new computer shows up and I get it all set up.
