[Dxbase] Interfacing IC746pro

Wed Mar 2 23:54:30 EST 2005

Josh helped me get going and maybe I can return the favor by helping you. 
Here is what Josh sent me. It involved editing the radio.ini file for the 
746 (not pro)
-----------------
> For radio 1, I have Icom 746 set.
>> Com 1 9600 8 word length none parity and 1 stop bit
>> I also have RTS High checked because my cable uses RTS for power.
>> In your RADIO.INI file for dx base, you need to change the address of the
> radio to Address=0x66 because the 746 and 746 pro use different
> addresses...
