How can I get a trial license for testing on an older IC-M710 with bad display?


 

Hello there,

I would like to test the software and see if I can make it work on an older IC-M710 radio. How can this be done?
73s?


 

Ben,

I can send you a trial version.

However, you also need a special cable made between your M710 radio to the computer.
And you also need to use old ancient dos-style ICOM 710 software to enable features in the radio - to use amateur band frequencies.
?
Do you really want to put money into software for a radio with a bad display ?
How can you effectively use a radio with a bad display ?
?


 

Hey Howard,
?
I've used the older version of HRI before, but since my laptops HDD failed, I don't have access to it anymore. I've used EX1726 to enable all features, I do not recall if I need anything more than the 3.5mm programming cable, or do I need to use the DB9 serial connector for connecting with HRI? Can't recall because it has been a long while..

I can't blame you for going in another direction with the software, as someone who used to write software myself. I have no idea if I want to put more money into it, but I at least wanted to give it a try. It seemed like a good alternative for an otherwise working radio.
?
Kind regards,
Ben
