[Icom] 756 Pro II / PW-1 CI-V question

Thu, 22 May 2003 06:15:23 -0400

Glad you got it to work Mac. I don't have to disconnect any of the cables
when I do the reset routine. Are you using the Icom CI/V interface of an
after market unit?

I'll have to agree with you that the manual is very week in this area.

Julio, W4HY
