G'day all,
Righteo, after having downloaded the Icom CS-905 software and having a bit of a read of both manuals, plus experience of past Icom rigs, I've now come up with a starting ICF file for your new IC-905 when they arrive soon.
My ICF file is VK3 centric, that includes all VK3 and some VK5 & VK7 beacons for all bands from 2m to 10Gigs, calling freqs, GPS settings, digital & common settings, callsign, metric/decimal settings, TOT of 3mins on all bands and most of the common FM & digital repeaters around VK3 when working on hill tops. I've also included a few freqs in the list in case you wish to use this rig as an IF for 3398 as well. It's a starting ICF file to get you going, which you can then add your own stuff.
If you want a copy and your email device handles ICF files, let me know and I'll send you a copy. You'll just need to change your callsign and short message settings. I hope to create some quick instructions as to what you'll need to change for your use. The only disclaimer is that this hasn't yet been tested on an IC-905 as they're yet to arrive in VK. But hopefully soon.
Cheers,
