[Icom] IC-756PRO CW keyer memory read/write

[George, W5YR]

Good going, John - I have been using TRX Manager to send commands and
attempting to decode the PRO responses which appear to be anything but
"straightforward." Thanks again to Ekki for leading us down the right path
- now if I can just see how to read and interpret the PRO responses life
will be better!   <:}

Incidently, I find the CIV-Explorer by AA6YQ to be the most convenient for
observing data flow to and from the PRO. Curiously, it always uses just "0"
for the controller instead of "E0" but it seems to work.

John, when we get this all figured out, maybe we can co-author a tutorial
posting on talking and listening to one's PRO!   <:}
