Channels may be sorted by frequency or by label, within any bank or all banks.ĭata files are in csv (comma-separated values) format, so users can create or edit them using spreadsheet or text editor programs. Tk8500 can be used to load the IC-R8500 memories or read memory data from the radio and store it in a file. The louder audio can alert you to signals on important frequencies while scanning or can compensate for undermodulated transmitters. You can designate a special volume setting to be used when receiving selected frequencies (no sound card required). tk8500 lets you scan multiple memory channel banks. You can only scan one bank at a time while operating the IC-R8500 using the radio's front panel controls. Less frequently used parameters may be accessed using the Scan Options pulldown menu, which may be "torn off" and used as a separate window (fig. Most IC-R8500 controls are available in tk8500's Main Controls, Adjustments, and Secondary Controls windows.
