ICOM IC-F110 is impossible to read the data from the radio

[IK2LHP]

ICOM IC-F110 is impossible to read the data from the radio, reads information: model / version / firmware but does not read the data. probably the retailer has set a lock for reading, there is a solution? I need to save the file .icf
Thank you

have your contacted the dealer? If it is YOUR radio not they have to unlock it for you unless you asked them to lock it when you had them program it.

thanks for reply Gesucks
the seller no longer has ended the activity, the radio (6) have been purchased and programmed by the dealer in 2010 no one was allowed to enter the block read, this is the situation, there is a way to bypass this block or we are obliged to reschedule? we are in possession of the software and the cable original icom purchased from the dealer. and our need to change the numbering of selective 5 tones ZVEI2.

I would suggest that if you cannot get in contact with the dealer who sold you the radios, you call ICOM tech support at (800) 253-1498 (in the US). I believe they can help you out.

Another case for making sure that you get a guarantee that the radios are unlocked when you buy them.

When I buy on ebay, I make sure to ask that question. I had one person tell me that an ICOM F-3021 was not locked but it turned out that it was. That email chain got me my money back from Paypal.

If you can get any information from the radio, then it may be set to read only.

In this case, just create a simple file and program the radio with it. A file NOT set to read only.

That should do it.

If the radio is password protected, it'll ask for a password on reading. Since you have not mentioned that it's asking for a password, then it is most likely set to read only which as I said, you can override by just reprogramming the radio with that feature turned off in your new file.

It may just be set to inhibit reading out of the file. That doesn't mean you can't write a new file to the radio. Somewhere in the programming software, there is an option to set read inhibit. Make sure it's NOT set, program the radio with even a basic one channel file, and you should then be able to read it again.
