Hi Tim, From the list of supported Icom radios choose the IC-7000. In the Radio 1 section of the Setup menu choose the default address of the IC-705 for both values (if you didn't change it).
The present program will work with the IC-705 as the single radio and also with the IC-705 in combination with a Yaesu or Kenwood radio, but not in combination with a second IC-705 or another Icom radio, but see below.
A few days ago I had a correspondence with another user who wanted to steer his two IC-705s for full duplex operation. With the current SatPC32 that doesn't work, because the program steers 2 Iccom radios at a single COM port via their CI-V ports. Unfortunately the IC-705 does not provide a CI-V port (no good idea, I think). CAT ccntrol can only be done via the radio's USB port.. So, to control two IC-705 requires two COM ports. We got it working (with IC-7000 for model) with a modified SatPC32.exe www.dk1tb.de/SatPC32_Icom2Port.exe It allows to configure the Radio 1 for the RX radio and the Radio 2 section for the TX radio. Importat: Both address values in the Radio 1 section and the address in the Radio 2 section must be the same.

Currently SatPC32 does not list the Icom IC-705 as a supported radio. I emailed Erich and he said the Icom commands are pretty much the same and to try some of the other rigs that are listed.
It is my goal to work AO7 in mode A with the 10 meter downlink. Plus I'm looking for an excuse to purchase a 705.
An additional question, do 10 meter hamsticks as a dipole work for an antenna for the 10 meter downlink work?
I'm slowly getting there....
