 I have used the Icom rig control in the linux version. I have used it on the 706 and the 7300.for the 706 I just radio one type=IC706. but for the 7300 I had to set: radio one type = 735
radio one receiver address = 148radio one control port = serial /dev/ttyUSB0
radio one name = IC-7300

and that made it work with the 7300. So you might want to try something like that and see what happens.James KC6UCN

 If you are using the linux version and the Icom code doesn't work,
the easiest solution is to install hamlib and use the rigctld option. I
typically use that anyway since you can then have other programs interact
with the rig.
