? ?I've never directly programmed my IC-7000, nor have I ever used the packet data interface - so feel free to ignore this if you get more knowledgable feedback! ?;-)

? ?That said, some observations:

? ?- I compared my hardcopy version of the IC-7000 manual (the one that originally came with my radio) and my Section 17, page 146 visually matches the downloaded copy you have.?

However, the Command Table entries for (what looks like...) Commands 0x06 - 0x0A on pg 146 look strange. Namely:

? ?1) the entries are "out of order". For the rest of the Command Table (which begins on page 142) the entries are all in numerical order, indexed first by Command # and then Subcommand #. But on page 146 the table jumps from Command 0x1A, Subcommand 0x050119 to "Commands" 0x06 - 0x0A (all with no Subcommands?), and then jumps back to Command 0x1B, Subcommand 0x00. Curious...

? ?2) Commands 0x06 - 0x0A have already been assigned to other functions?back on page 142 of the table, where they are shown in the proper numerical order! In other words, the out-of-order entries on page 146 (including the 0x0A one you're using) is in conflict with the assignments already made on page 142. At the very least, it looks like we have some kind of misprint in the documentation.

? ?If that's the case (i.e. the documentation is wrong) - what is the right answer? At this point I'm merely speculating, but it might be worth a try... ?What If: the 0x06 - 0x0A "Commands" on page 146 were mistakenly put in the wrong column, and they really should be Subcommands? Since something has to go in the Commands column - What If: they're all just additions to the "0x1A" Command family? This is just a guess, but moving 0x06 - 0x0A over to the Subcommand column and replacing them with 0x1A Commands would "fix" the numerical order?anomaly and remove the assignment clash with the original (page 142) Commands 0x06 - 0x0A. Sounds promising to me... ?;-)

? ?Again, this is just "paper debugging" (and a lot of speculation), so if you receive any better informed ideas feel free to ignore this. But if not, it sounds like you're set up to easily test the hypothesis if you want to try. Let us know what you find!

? ?73's and Good Luck,
