Supported Radios
In the following support
means that the program is at least capable of tracking and controlling
the mode and frequency of the radio since those are the PC-controllable
capabilities of main interest in contest operation. Depending on the
radio the program
may also track and/or control various other parameters but it is not a
general purpose radio control program.
ICOM Radios - CQ/X supports
the IC-706 MKIIG and the IC-7000 and has been
extensively tested in actual use on those two radios. It should also
work on other late model ICOM radios such as other versions of the
IC-706 and the different versions of the IC-746 and IC-756. In some
cases it may be necessary to change the radio's address to make it
appear as one of the radio choices.
Kenwood Radios
- CQ/X supports and has been extensively tested on the TS-480. It
should also work with
other PC-controllable Kenwood radios since most, if not all, of them
use the same instructions for frequency and mode.
Yaesu Radios
- A module is
included in the release for version 1.7.4 for the FT-100 and the
FT-1000MP but very little opportunity has been available for testing on
these radios. As testing opportunity presents itself and any necessary
revisions are made the updated module will be made available for down
load from this site.
TenTec Radios
- A
module has been developed for interfacing to the Orion I and Orion II
and is
currently being tested. This module is not part of the release for
version 1.7.4 but will be made available for down load from this site
on successful completion of the tests.
