Hi, 

I worked out how to edit the driver file and changed to 799 to match the radio.

Now it reads to 799 and displays Completed getting memory 799 (idle) in the status bar

Memories (Band A) has been read but the error report is:

Exception in thread Thread-9:

  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/chirp/drivers/ic9x_ll.py", line 174, in send
    raise errors.InvalidDataError("No response from radio")
InvalidDataError: No response from radio

Hmm, seems that 849 could be in other files?
