Can 'Radiocomm' be downloaded from somewhere?  I haven't seen it on Icom's
site.

I've used ICOM's 'old-ware' for a few years (the one that came with my
1000) - pretty good but could be a lot better, especially where it comes to
saving ALL settings with the freq and linking banks.

I've tried TalkPcr - better, but I still see some areas that I would like to
operate differently (emailing Author later today).
