[PCR-1000] Win XP and Icom Software

Fri, 26 Apr 2002 14:31:25 -0400

As far as I know, there are two softwares available with similar names:

Radiocomm, a free software to control icom receivers including pcr-1000,
see http://www.arachnoid.com/radiocomm/

Radiocom, a commercial software package for controlling radio (including
pcr-1000) and decoding RTTY, SATFAX etc., which sells for $199 at US.  See
http://www.computer-int.com/rc.htm

cheers,

Bill
