Re: Icom CI-V Addresses

[John W Wilson <z004391b@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is correct.  The information goes to the radios in 'packets' and, 
depending on the setup in the radios, provides an 'acknowlegement' to the 
request.  I run my CI-V at 9600 baud to 4 Icom radios.  I even wrote 
software to emulate the CT-16 rig whereby if you tune one radio on one 
band it will auto-tune (track) another radio on another band.  Great for 
satellite work.  Even tunes one radio backward if you tell it.
