SysLabs RadioControl is a software platform for radio device control and application development. It operates on _Windows_ versions from Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 through _Windows 11_. The software is available in Lite, Standard, and Professional editions, each including Frontpanel for direct radio control, a Frequency Database for management, and a Memory File for channel operations. Features include frequency identification, memory scanning, and graphical spectrum views with bitmap export capability. The Professional Edition supports multi-device control and utilizes radio device-internal scanners, achieving scan rates of **40-60 steps per second** compared to the RadioControl-internal scanner's **10-20 steps per second**. Supported devices for internal scanning include AOR AR-5000, AR-8200, AR-8600, AR-ONE, R&S EB200, and various Icom receivers and transceivers. RadioControl supports older devices such as ICOM IC-R71, IC-R7000, IC-706, IC-735, YAESU FRG-8800, and FRG-9600, extending their control capabilities. The platform offers APIs for integration and supports import/export with formats from VisualRadio, SCANcontrol, shoc Radio Manager, WiNRADiO, AOR ACEPAC-3A, as well as generic Text, CSV, and HTML.

The **Escort** series Tactical Carrying System provides robust protection and enhanced portability for popular HF transceivers, addressing the need for secure field operation and transport. These systems, designed for models such as the Yaesu FT-857D/891, FT-991, FT-817/818ND, and Icom IC-706/703/7000, IC-7300, feature military-grade construction with front panel protection and versatile carrying strap attachment points. Operators can confidently deploy their rigs in various environments, from SOTA activations to casual field days, knowing their equipment is safeguarded against bumps and impacts. Beyond tactical carriers, Portable Zero LLC also produces the **Sherpa Pack** for the Yaesu FT-817 and the Field Power 12 and Field Power 3 Battery Cases. These accessories complement portable operations by providing essential power solutions and additional carrying options, facilitating extended off-grid activity. Established no later than 2013, Portable Zero LLC manufactures its products in the USA, leveraging CAD design and CNC precision laser cutting for consistent quality. The company's commitment to enhancing portable amateur radio operations is evident in its specialized product line, available in finishes like Black Texture and OD Green.

A 15-pin data switch, typically a rotary-knob type designed for DB-25 connectors, forms the basis for this microphone selector project. The resource details the conversion process, which involves replacing the original DB-25 connectors with **RJ-45** or **RJ-12** jacks to accommodate modern amateur radio microphones. It specifically addresses wiring for radios like the Icom IC-706 series (including the IC-7000 and IC-703) and Yaesu transceivers such as the FT-857, FT-897, FT-817, FT-7800, FT-7900, FT-8800, FT-8900, FTM-100, and FTM-400. The design ensures all microphone lines are switched straight through, with separate contacts for external speaker/headphone jacks, allowing simultaneous switching. The project emphasizes the practical application of switching between a headset for net control and a hand mic for rag-chewing without repeatedly plugging and unplugging cables. It highlights modifications to the original concept, such as eliminating a separate PTT jack by integrating PTT into headset cables and building the external speaker cable directly into the selector. The article provides guidance on managing the non-color-coded wiring often found in these data switches by soldering wires one by one from old to new connectors, ensuring correct pin alignment. This approach simplifies the conversion, making it accessible for hams seeking a functional and cost-effective mic switching solution.
