tk5 v0.2 is now available for free download. tk5 is open source,
multi-platform software for configuring the ICOM IC-R5 receiver.

I wrote tk5 chiefly for radio hobbyists who use Linux, MacOS X,
BSD, Solaris, Unix, or other non-Windows operating systems.
tk5 works on Windows-based systems (95 and later), too.

Changes in version 0.2 include:

-New controls permit access to a special bank of 70 television channels.

-A csv file of 100 international shortwave broadcast frequencies
is included with the distribution.

-Frequencies out of the range 0.1 - 1309.995 MHz are rejected as invalid.

-Users are prevented from importing a csv file until they have
opened a template file or read an image from the radio.

tk5 is undergoing development. You can learn about and freely
download an experimental version of tk5 from:

I don't warrant the software, though it will cost you nothing.

I do not own an IC-R5. Thanks to Grove Enterprises, who lent me
an IC-R5 for testing and to David Owen, who provided IC-R5 memory
layout and cloning information. I am indebted to Lee M. who helped
test tk5 using a Japanese version IC-R5.
