Yaesu FT-710 memory manager software

The Yaesu FT-710 is one of Yaesu’s most popular SDR transceivers. It delivers exceptional value — offering advanced digital features and great receiver performance at the price of an entry-level radio. In many respects, it rivals the manufacturer’s more expensive flagship models.

However, Yaesu does not provide any official memory manager or programmer software for the FT-710 or for most of its other radios. As someone who regularly works with memory programming and configuration management, I found this to be a real limitation.

A simple programmer tool I developed for the FT-710

To address this need, I developed a small and simple Yaesu FT-710 memory manager software using Python. It’s not a polished commercial product — just a functional tool I created for my own use, and now I’m sharing it freely with the community.

Despite being under 200 lines of code, it already offers several useful features:

  • Connects to the FT-710 via CAT (Computer Aided Transceiver) protocol,

  • Reads memory slot data such as frequency and mode,

  • Allows manual overwriting of memory channels,

  • Includes a basic graphical user interface (GUI) for easy operation.

Please note: The software is still in active development. In upcoming versions, I plan to add:

  • Deletion of individual memory slots,

  • Memory slot copy/move functionality,

  • Full import/export to Excel (XLS) format for backup and editing.

How to download and use it

The software runs on Windows. There’s no installer — just run the exe file directly after downloading. (portable application)
