Digital Master 780 (DM780) Radio Control Macros
See my previous articles on receiver and transmitter settings for digital operation using the Icom 7300.
DM780 Macros
Not only does DM780 have macros for sending text for digital modes, but it has the ability to setup macros for radio control. Turn on and off multiple radio options simultaneously with the click of the mouse.
With the Icom 7300 and Icom 7610 I do not use NR, NB or AN when receiving PSK31. So if I have been in USB or LSB (phone) modes with those options turned on and want to quickly switch over to my digital settings I have been doing it manually. Using the front of the radio.
However, DM780 has a great solution, the radio control macro. One click and I am there.

Hi Heinz,
Nice to hear from you and thank you for commenting here.
No FT8 in DM780, but I am working with JTDX. JTDX is very, very good for FT8. Similar to WSJT-X.
I will have a video on JTDX.
