ContestConsole - compatible radios
In general:
If the radio is compatible with one of ICOM's standard 8 pin microphones (such as HM-36, SM-50, HM-219), then the ContestConsole PTT, frequency up, frequency down buttons and the 3.5mm microphone socket should work.
If the radio manual mentions "external keypad" in relation to voice/CW/RTTY memories, then the ContestConsole memory buttons should work.
If the radio is compatible with the AH-4 tuner, then the ContestConsole tune button should work (additional cable required).
An adapter cable (OPC-589) is required if the radio has a modular microphone connector instead of an 8 pin circular microphone connector.
On some radios, an external storage device (SD card or USB stick) is needed for voice memories to work.
There are usually some radio settings that need changing before the memory buttons will function - look for "external keypad" in the manual for details.
Below is a list of radios and which ContestConsole features should work on them (based on the radio manuals).
