hi i have two yaesu ft1000mp's and the radio has many commands and
can deliver information about settings in the radio. it has access
to the menus etc. i have not looked at other yaesu radios but i bet
there is plenty of access to be had. i modified a triple-talk usb
synthesizer and rewrote the necessary code but had all the access i
needed to be able to use the radios. take care, c u mike
