I got a Kenwood TH-D74A radio recently. It's pretty heckin' cool.

One of the really cool things it has is the ability to dump its configuration out to a file on a microsd card. It can also import configuration from a file on a microsd card.

There doesn't seem to be any documentation that I can find on the file format. Kenwood ships software for Windows that can be used to configure the radio, but it's only for Windows. I don't use Windows, and CHIRP doesn't yet support programming this radio, so I figured I'd take a stab at out-of-band programming for it. At the very least, maybe my experiments and attempts to reverse engineer and document the config file format will be useful to someone else later.

Notes

Japan

When I was contemplating why this radio doesn't seem to have any support for Japanese characters, despite being a Japanese manufactured radio, I thought perhaps there was an entirely different model in Japan, so I went searching.

I didn't find what I was looking for, but I found something even better. Here's a product video for the TH-D7. It's amazing. Camping, BBQ, and SSTV, it has it all. Fun for the whole family. Aha! Apparently there's an English version, too.
