INTERCOM is a freeware application designed for remote control of KENWOOD TMD700/710/V-71 transceivers, as well as other transceivers equipped with UP, DOWN, and PTT commands. Compatible with Windows XP and higher (32 & 64-bit), INTERCOM offers multilingual support in English and French, and can be used on Linux, Ubuntu, or Android platforms via WINE 1.0 or CROSSOVER. The software enables users to send basic commands—such as selecting TX, VFO, memory channels, or power levels—either through manual inputs or over a TCP/IP link. INTERCOM is tailored for SIMPLEX setups, facilitating the interconnection of VHF/UHF repeaters with nearby repeaters. Remote commands are transmitted using DTMF codes, which are decoded by SIMPLEX and forwarded to INTERCOM via TCP/IP. This functionality makes INTERCOM an ideal tool for radio enthusiasts and operators seeking seamless remote management of supported transceivers in simplex configurations.
