Greatly appreciated: I'm working on the 857 settings, i'll test this
patch for sure ;)
I'll let you know my thoughts.
Cool, thanks :)
I have a rather complete map of the FT-897D memory (which I
understand is pretty much identical to the FT-857), and the FT-817ND
as well. The only problem is, it is in code written in Java, so I
don't have clear bit-fields like I do in my C++ code for D-Star
radios. The Java code uses a table format describing the fields and
the bit positions therein, using Java "enum"s, so the code isn't
very clear to someone who is not familiar with that Java feature.
If someone wants that (GPL v2) code, I have no problem providing it,
with the understanding that I don't presently have the time to
explain the code (flying weather is picking up). It doesn't look
too difficult to figure out.

ps: I used GPL v2 (without the "any later version" clause) in my
code, because I don't particularly care for the idea that Richard
Stallman could decide on a new GPL license, and have users
arbitrarily adopt that, with unknown consequences to me. I don't
particularly mind v3 (I prefer v2; I think it's a better license
for my purposes), but I'm not comfortable with leaving the door open
to any future revisions that he or anyone else at the FSF would
create. I don't believe that reverse engineering my code is a
violation of the GPL v2 (at any rate I'll allow it in this
circumstance), but I'd like to restrict its distribution to GPL v2
only.
