Works great

I would love to see Kappanhang integrated into this app. Then we could have PTT and audio output over WiFi. I wonder if we will get, at the very least, Bluetooth PTT and audio functionality. That would be very useful, especially when the rig is sitting inside a backpack.

CI-V mismatch

App connects ok via Bluetooth but issues a CI-V address mismatch. When I check , CI-V address in 705 and app settings agree. Should work better!

Response from developer

Please try new version 1.0.3. If CI-V address is correct and still appear mismatch dialog, please message here again. SRI 73 de JN4JXL.

Problem

The app connects then immediately disconnects.

The app now connects correctly.
When I change frequency on the radio it changes on the app, but when I change the frequency on the app it doesn’t change on the radio.
The band does not change it on the radio.
The radio changes the band on the app.

That fixed the problem, thanks.

Works fine with ICOM software v1.2

Works great!

Great potential

Nice to see apps starting to be developed that take advantage of the capabilities that the 705 has. Looking forward to seeing this app mature.

Didn’t work for me initially, follow details below

Initially: I’m on firmware V1.20 of the Icom IC-705. Sadly this software doesn’t seem to work with the radio. I am paired to the radio but the device just keeps coming up with the pairing message. Despite repeating this several times, no joy.

Resolution: I was already connected to Bluetooth as you’d connect a regular device. Once I’d disconnected that link, I was able to pair the app to the radio.

It’s a solid 4* at the moment, but I’d give 5* if I was able to do more settings from the phone.
