Yaesu VX-6 programming

Hi!
I'm using a Yaesu VX-6 handheld transceiver. For simplifying programming
hundreds of memories, scan frequencies settings etc. I'm looking for a
PC software.
There's Yaesu's ADMS and KC8UNJ's VX-6 commander - but both are Windows
tools :-(

Is there any Linux/open-source Yaesu programming software?

Andreas,

I didn't find any when I was looking for my VX-7.  I ended up using
KC8UNJ's software on a Windows machine.  I didn't try, but it might work
under Wine.

FWIW, Bob G4HFQ has written some pretty good (for Windows :-) )
sofware for programming various Yaesu rigs which he sells for a
very reasonable price. The support for his software is rather good
too!


I would like to think that Bob would be approachable for a port to
Linux. www.g4hfq.co.uk is the link.

My vxu software can save and restore the data for many Yaesu radios,  
but I've never tried a VX-6 or VX-7.  It is only the data transfer  
part for backing up and restoring the settings, being a port of the  
"yard" tools.
