This is yaesu_conf, software for configuring Yaesu radios. It consists of two programs: yaesu_rw and yaesu_edit. yaesu_rw -------- The yaesu_rw program for using the clone mode of Yaesu radios to back up and restore radio configuration. kenwood_rw -------- The kenwood_rw program for using the serial port to a Kenwood TM-V71 to back up and restore radio configuration. radio_edit ---------- The radio_edit program lets you edit the configuration of the radios. It can generally edit all the memories of the radio along with a lot of the menu configuration. It does not transfer the data, you have to use yaesu_rw independently to get the configuration from the radio and write it back out after you edit it. Layout files ------------ The "xxx.layout" files here are attempts to decode the cloned information into the meanings of the various data fields. The eventual goal is to have a program that allows the user to modify the contents of a cloned file to make it easier to program the monstrous number of memory that some of these radios have. Supported radios ---------------- This software has been tested with the following radios: Yaesu FT-60R works FT-7800R works FT-897D works VX-7R works Kenwood TM-V71 works Thanks ------ Jim Tittsler wrote a program named vxu that did the same thing as yaesu_rw, but I had stability problems with it, as the timing method he was using caused glitching on on of my serial port. So I rewrote using, IMHO, a better method for using this.
