Is there any software that will work with the R30 that can control the R30 with your computer with logging or other options? So far, I haven't found any. Thanks.
I'm a new and relatively inexperienced owner of an R-30, but I think you may want to take a close look at Icom's CS-R30 software.
I've learned the basics about how to use the software to program the R-30's memory channels, VFO scan edges, and some of the settings, but I'm not yet certain about whether or not it can handle reception logging. It looks like a very feature-rich tool, so my guess is that it probably can. You will probably need to install a microSD card in the radio (pretty simple) to record data (including reception logs?) or voice traffic.
Someone on this forum will probably give you much better information shortly.
I found the question asked in another thread about remote control of the R30 by computer software. To answer the question, I have not found any computer software to control the R30. However, there is software for Android and I Phone available on their respective app stores to control the R30...

ICOM's software is very limited! Check out Butel's ARC30 software:
Overview of options in the ARC30 programming software for the Icom IC-R30 receiver:
ARC30 programs the Icom IC-R30 receiver (SD card is required!)**
ARC30 includes the most versatile memory editor available on the market including cut/copy/paste options!
ARC30 includes a user friendly 'browser' that makes navigating the software a breeze
ARC30 is programming software only using the SD card slot**. ARC30 does NOT support audio file and ICF file transfer/conversion nor does it control the Icom IC-R30.
