Ok Guys I have the IC 9700 working on sat32 using the setup: IC 9100 19200 address of A2H and cat speed 50

The radio frequencies were reversed but after a few times of flipping them on the radio it started tracking the program ok. It appears to be working just waiting for a operational sat to come over now.

As for the radio it seams to be ok on fm and dstar. You have to load memories using cloning software. I loaded a couple local repeaters and found the icom CS 9700 is not transferring some data such as tone and duplex setting. I plan to ask Icom next week.

Lots to learn yet.
