[Dx4win] DX4WIN - Kenwood TS570S Parameters (Repost)

[Romualdas Ulevicius]

I have solved such problem in my DX4WIN ver.4.07 in this way:

File - Databases - Radios - Kenwood 570 - Menu Values:
insert in Command preamble box "IF;" , without quotation marks
and save changes.

"IF" is a Kenwood command "Reads status of the transceiver"
