User Guide

HamBench is a desktop app for amateur radio memory and live computer control (CAT).

It ships a generic serial driver. Per-radio support comes from radio modules — JSON configs you install from GitHub Releases. Install only the radios you own.

What you can do

• Read and write memory on the Radio page (Import / Write), or open and save JSON memory files
• Edit channels in the loaded image, and keep a portable channel library
• Live CAT on radios that declare it (Kenwood TH-F6, TH-D74, TM-D710A): frequency, mode, power, PTT
• Sniff clone-protocol traffic between a computer and a radio
• Flag transmit frequencies outside your license class (US Callook lookup)

Start here

1. Install HamBench
2. Install radio modules
3. Read and write memory
4. Live CAT if your radio supports it
