    Anyone good with ICOM IC400 Pros?

    So I've bought a second hand Icom IC400, and it is a very solid piece of kit! It turns on, can send/receive however none of the function keys work on the front of the radio (ie can't access any menus, scan etc). Is there a way of resetting this to factory (I think it may have come out of a mining vehicle) or does anyone know someone who can program these in Sydney?

    Cheers!

    You can easily program it yourself. The software is freely available on the net and used to be on this site from memory. The programming cables can be bought on ebay for around $20.00.

    be careful of the e bay special cables, a mate brought one and it wiped the channels from the radio, had to then go to someone with the right cable and get it fixed.

    As stated, software and cable needed. Only way to reset to standard 40/80ch uhf.
    Icom do not like the software being available, but can be found.
    Simplest way is to let an Icom dealer reload the standard uhf *.icf file.
    5 min job, shouldn't cost a lot.

    Icom have systematically checked and requested removal of their proprietary software from the most obvious internet sites.
