Most of Icom’s transceivers from the last 20 years will work to some degree with wfview. Even though our target platform consists of modern-era transceivers, wfview’s command dictionary is focused on commands with the most compatibility. Wfview has been developed with an eye towards compatibility. Network audio (from the rig’s USB port) is currently in development. On the IC-7300, wfview can serve as a USB to Ethernet “bridge”, connecting the 7300 to the network for remote control using another instance of wfview on a remote computer. Special care was taken in the creation of the network code for very low latency audio - ideal for general QSOs as well as time-sensitive modes such as FT8 and JT65. Also, the same cable is being used with Icoms Remote Control software on this PC with that rig, and that software works perfectly, remotely controlling all the.

On rigs with built-in network interfaces (such as the IC-705, IC-7610, IC-7850, IC-R8600, and IC-9700), live audio streaming is available for both receive and transmit. Wfview provides the user with controls that may be comfortably operated from a keyboard, mouse, or touch screen interface.
