Yaesu VX-177 USB Programming Cable

[Project18]

After a com disaster during an event last week end, where elements (30mm rain), land, and failure to sucessfully program CTCSS channels in my Yeasu-VX 177 made coms go from bad to worse to even a total failure.

I decided to look for an alternative to manual programming.

Here is what I came across:

USB Programming cable Yaesu Vertex VX-170 VX-7R VXA-300: 24.99$ US
From Afordable Radio on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.ca/USB-Programming-c...item29ff0bc712
=> approved by G4HFQ

=============================================

Memory management program for the VX-177 FM handheld: 15$ US
From G4HFQ :http://www.g4hfq.co.uk/ftb177.htm

Here is what the software looks like: (Seems pretty straight forward to me)


I think that for under 50$ this makes a really nice bundle. The software allows for radio memory cloning as well, so you can make a common set-up for all your squad/team members.

I hope this helps.

Cable received, software purchased.... Works like a charm...
