Justin:

TheUT102  does make the radio accessible  to a degree, but you will likely 
need help getting it initially set up.

I had an IC718 for a while, and if I remember, the UT102 read frequency, 
mode, basic rig functions, and memory channels.  But it did not read any 
menus, or other items more directly related to actually programming and 
setting up the radio.

If you'd like, I'll send you the files I have on the rig, and also a review 
I did of the rig for Handihams back around 2002 or so.

Just give me your current  private e-mail address, and we'll take it from 
there.
