Icom radio remote switch on
« on: 2010-12-22, 15:34:11 »
A while ago someone told me the ICOM rigs do not support remote switch on via CIV
In the command set I found:

$18    $00   Turn receiver power OFF    When RX is already off, answer is still "Ok" from rig.
IC-R75: doc error (On/Off reversed)
IC-R8500: Power off, Activating sleep mode

        $01  Turn receiver power ON    When RX is already ON, sending this command returns an error. Disappointing, but understandable.

So the code is supporting it. Has anyone tried this with HRD or other control soft for the icom radios?
