I don't have one, but it's my understanding that the IC-761 is 
essentially an IC-751 in a bigger box. I took a look at the Icom CI-V 
Reference Manual and it indeed shows the same command set for the 
751, 751A and 761.

I also had a look at my file of the 761 manual, which shows how to 
configure the radio. The manual doesn't really say what the address 
is, but it shows a drawing of the DIP switch (S2) that sets it. 
According to the CI-V reference manual, the default address is 1E 
hex. The default baud rate is 1200, also changeable via another DIP 
switch (S1). It will also be necessary to turn Transceive mode off on 
S1 to make the radio "play nice" with most software.  This 
information appears on page 26 of the 761 manual.

Hope this helps.
