FT-60 Commander v0.0.6 BETA Released
Get it at my page:
What's New:
-Added Key Assignments (FT-60 Settings Menu)
-Added Home Memories (bottom of grid)
-Added VFO "Memories" (bottom of grid)
-Added a method of writing files from other radios with different
hardware configuations. This is "Apply HW Config To Current File" in
the Transfer menu.
-Moved "Use Write Mode #2" to the Transfer Menu, now called "Use
ALternate Write Mode"
-Fixed a bug with TX Dev
-Fixed a bug with split tone selections
-Other minor adjustments
If I have omitted any of the radio settings, please let me know, this
should be about all of them. Once I have all of the radio settings
programmed and nobody finds any bugs for a while, I'll jump the
software up to version 1.0.0 and drop the BETA designation. Thanks to
those of you who have provided bug reports and feedback, you know who
you are.

Special Note For Non-US Users
----------------------------------
The FT-60 is now available in countries other than the USA. FT-60
Commander should work OK for these radios. However, if the software
detects a US machine, it will not allow programming memory channels
frequencies that are blocked in US models. This has become a problem
for some non-US users, such as non-us users using a US configuration
on their PCs.
If you are a non-US user who is using a US configuration on your PC,
and you want to program "US blocked" frequencies into your memory
channels via Commander, then you must go through the following
process:
1. Go to the Control Panel
2. Click on Regional Settings
3. On the default screen, use the drop down menu to change the region
from English (United States) to any other configuration, such as
English (United Kingdom) etc.
4. Click OK/Apply. If prompted to reboot, click NO. Rebooting is not
necessary, since you will be changing it back in a minute.
5. Launch FT-60 Commander. The software will detect a non-US
configuration and will enable programming of the US-blocked
frequencies to the memory channels, and will continue to do so even
after the region is set back to US.
6. Go back into Regional Settings, and change the region back to
English (United States)
If you are a non-US user and you have your regional settings set to
anything other than English(United States) then you should not have
any problems, and you do not need to go through this process.
In the USA, FCC laws govern the use of amateur radio equipment, and
other nations have similar governing bodies that regulate the
airwaves. It is your responsibility to know, understand, and obey the
laws that effect you.
THE AUTHOR OR CONTRIBUTORS OF FT-60 COMMANDER WILL NOT BE
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE UNLAWFUL MISUSE OF YOUR FT-60R!!!
