Hi As far as I am aware the ICOM Marine Radios are controlled using vendor proprietary NMEA commands. I have tried speaking to ICOM to get a list of these commands but they do not appear to be interested in assisting. I have found that there are programs like Ham Radio Integrator and RMS Express that are capable of changing frequency and mode of operation on these radios but as yet I have been unable to get the commands. Does anyone know where I could get these commands? I see this as the first step that would be needed if support for these radios is added to for example this lib. Best regards Ken Nelson |

Keep on trying to get the list of commands from ICOM. We were more lucky with ham HF transceivers, the command list appears at the end of the manual, which is not the case for Marine Radios :( > Does anyone know where I could get these commands?

Under "fair-use", we can try to get an insight of the protocol like did this guy: http://mvvikingstar.blogspot.fr/2012/10/connecting-and-debugging-your-icom-m802.html I don't own an ICOM Marine Radio, but if some of you can do beta-testing, I'll try to create a new hamlib backend "icmarine" (or any better name?)

Hi Stéphane I have an ICOM 802M installed on my yacht (12.5m 30+ year old Jeanneau) and am using RMS Express and HRI to control the radio from a Window 8.1 notebook. I try to spend time every weekend on the yacht so I am sure I can assist with testing if there is no big rush. I intend to be away over December so this may delay testing. I will naturally need to get the necessary software installed "HamLib" and a front end application to perform the necessary testing. For me I wanted to write an application that could be scheduled to record Weather Fax's, Navtext etc as the decoded digital and / or audio files. To achieve this I need to be able to control the radio with software. I believe I could achieve this using HRI but if HamLib is able to support the ICOM Marine HF Radios may be a better solution. Best regards Ken Nelson |

Hi everyone, I've been adding initial support for Icom Marine radios in Hamlib. These are models ID 3001 for IC-M700PRO, 3003 for IC-M710 and 3002 for IC-M802 backend. They are available in the git repo, and also in the coming nightly build at http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/ (including zip for Windows). For a non standard remote ID, you may pass option "-C remoteid=xx" to rigctl. Please report to the Hamlib mailing-list the outcome of your tests. Directions are located in the file README.betatester. Have fun -- Stephane - F8CFE |

Great ! And good idea because it uses hamlib in other areas than the only amateur field. Maybe one day it will be used professionaly (Which it deserves) Congratulations Stephane !

Wow thats fantastic. I would love to test it. -----Original Message----- From: Remi Chateauneu (Imap) [mailto:rem...@gm...] Sent: Saturday, January 24, 2015 8:34 PM To: Hamlib developers Subject: Re: [Hamlib-developer] ICOM Marine Radios M710 802M Great !

Hi Ken,
Thank you for the feedback.

Here are the rigctl functions that are available for the Icom M802:
- f, F (Hz) RX (and TX if no split mode) frequency
- m, M (USB, LSB, CW, AM, RTTY) mode (TODO check whether is changes also the TX mode)
- t, T (0 ou 1) change to RX / TX (PTT)
- s, S (VFOA 0/1) to enable/disable split mode (freq tx!=rx)
- i, I to change Tx freq in split mode
- u, U (NB 0/1) to enable/disable the Noise Blanker
- l, L to get/set various levels
AF: value between 0 (for mute), and 1.0 for 100%.
RF: value between 0 (for no gain), and 1.0 for 100%.
RFPOWER: output power. 0 for minimum, 0.5 for 50% and 1.0 for max.
STRENGTH (only cmd l) to read S-Meter. Value in dB relative to S9.
This needs to be calibrated by sending to me the values
of "l RAWSTR", c.f. at the end of README.betatester file.
- G TUNE to trigger the TUNER
- \get_dcd to know whether the squelch is closed or open.
To get a recap of what a rig is capable of: rigctl -m 3002 -u
Best Regards

Hi I am able to set the frequency and change the mode using the new hamlib on an 802M. Is there a checklist / test document etc that I can go through to make sure I have tested all the functions?
