Ham Radio Deluxe Macro CAT Command Manager

CAT Command Manager - CAT commands are radio specific or, to put it another way, what works on one type to do a certain thing may either not do anything at all on another or do something entirely different.

This option may have been provided so that you may be able to initiate commands that have not been provided for in the program. This might occur if you have had a firmware upgrade.
