NO RS232 PORT, NO PROBLEM! |
The old CT-17 interface connected to a standard RS-232 PC comm port and controlled up to four different Icom devices from a single PC. Icom's CT-17 interface was legacy serial RS-232 and is not a pretty solution these days with 9 to 25 pin converters and USB to 232 adapters.
This interface is a true USB transceiver interfacing to the Icom CIV standard (remote connector on your radio). There's no conversion to or from RS-232 and provides CIV logic for Icom transceivers (up to 4) as did the original Icom CT-17. Interface connects, operates and is powered by the computer USB port, has 4 connectors for radios and a clear gloss high quality die-cast metal enclosure.
This is fully compatible with popular contesting software (CT, WriteLog, TRLog, DX4WIN, etc.) and many 3rd party applications.
This package includes (from the picture above): - The W2ENY CT-17 USB unit, multi-radio "CI-V" Interface - Two cables to hookup two radios (connects the module to two radios, more cables are available) - 6 foot USB cable (between the interface and your computer USB connection) - Starter CD with complete driver set and installation manual - Tested to Windows 10 |
On the CDROM: - The Icom CT-17 manual - The Icom 'Communication Interface Reference Manual' - (a programmers guide) - Software specific to Icom radios - Ham Radio Deluxe - My own quick start instructions and many pages of software docs - Many other 3rd Party Programs |
USB Computer interface works with ALL Icom radios having a 'REMOTE" rear connector: IC-7000 703, 706 (all models), 718, 735, 736, 738, 745, 746, 746PRO, 756, 756PRO, 756PRO-II, 756PRO-III, 751, 761, 765, 775, 781, 7100, 7200, 7300, 7400, 7600, 7700, 7800, 820, 821, 910. |
On the inside, all components have been asembled on a professionally made double sided printed circuit board.
