Sounds like the issue was more to do with the software you used to control the 7300 over the mesh network, not so much the radio itself.
?
There are plenty of IC-7300 compatible remote software packages that accurately represent what the transmitter is doing...

During Field Day as one of our trials, we controlled a computer at one end of our microwave MESH network in a trailer, from a PC in the Emergency Operations Center? ? It worked, made a contact through a 7300, but it just wasn't perfect because we really couldn't tell what the TRANSMITTER was doing.?
