Sweet. Thanks fellas. My buddy also has the 7800 with the programming software. I'm all set there.
I can't wait to get my call sign and start "geeking out".

Sweet!
You should be FCC approved by Friday! It'll be cool to have a newbie with a call sign higher than mine...I've had several comments on mine from old timers!
Take the time to learn how to program your radio manually - it makes changing things a lot easier on the fly.

I don't know what to say, but God Bless America.
True! The 7800 isn't too bad to program manually. which is actually the way I programmed mine since I don't have the software or cable. Still, I printed the owner's manual from a PDF doing 4 pages per sheet, double sided and stashed it in the Tuffy.Originally Posted by crawler#976
Yeah, it's pretty easy to program.
But with 1000 memory channels, you can really take advantage of the banks, etc when you can copy and paste away!
With the entry-level license - the codeless tech license - you can operate all modes allowed in ham radio above 30 MHz.
These include but are not limited to slow-scan TV, fast scan TV (called HAM TV or amateur television), satellite communications, moonbounce, and voice on 6 meters, 2 meters, 1-1/4 meters, 70 cm, 33 cm, 23 cm and on up to light (literally).
