Comments:
It took me some ten weeks to modify a 8-pin
mini-DIN TS-480 SEND-cable for the FT-710 to
test it first time in CWT with the SB-230
(all modified for 5 volts PTT from -130V).
Basic CW sounded very good with the FT-710
except for slight coloring with the DNR
function (correspondingly Icom NR sounds
more neutral to me: no mountain stream
intonations there). Got things programmed
in the first 7 minutes, like CW Memory.
Some GUI improvements preferred. CW Memory
button layout of the FT-710 overlaps the
waterfall and prevents also the adjustment
of other parameters in-flight, like CW-speed.
Much to learn with the new rig. I was called
away for medical attention, so only 36 minutes
spent in the 1300Z session S/P.
