EasyTuner comes with a number of pages of pre-programmed frequencies to help
you get started:
-
Big SWL frequency list organized by country.
-
2 Meter repeater page with automatic computation of uplink frequency.
-
AM, CB, VHF Marine + weather pages.
To use EasyTuner, you need an available serial interface on your computer, and
you must have Microsoft Excel 5.0 or later. For Kenwood radios, you must have
the RS-232 interface box (model IF-232C). On older Kenwood radios you may also
need an internal circuit board (model IF-10A or B). For Icom radios you must
have their interface box (model CI-V Level Converter).
As time goes by, the radio manufacturers are including more of this computer
interface circuitry in the radios as sold, so you might want to check with your
distributor or your manuals to see how much of it is already included in your
radio. At the time of writing, the latest Icom model (IC-746) still requires
the level converter box, in spite of what many distributors believe (by the
way, I just bought the Icom IC-746 and it is quite spectacular).
EasyTuner may eventually be expanded to work with Yaesu radios, but at the
moment I only have Kenwood and Icom radios for testing.

If, when you try to run EasyTuner, your system reports that it can't run it,
check to be sure you have Microsoft Excel 5.0 or later on your system.
