Nate,
I recently went through a similar experience with the TH-7800 driver. I used Serial Port Monitor 6 to "sniff" the serial traffic while uploading and downloading the radio via the OEM software. The TYT software is really limited, but it does that part well. Once I figured out the protocol, it was easy to modify the a very similar driver to work. I'm betting Alinco has their own software you can do this with. Good luck! :)
I see that "Serial Port Monitor 6" is for Windows. I am using Devuan (Debian) Linux so that is probably out.
Alinco shows no OEM software for the DR-635T.
