Take the part about joining #chirp on Freenode seriously... we'll help
you out there, in realtime!

You can peruse the code
http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/repository/show/chirp to see
what the drivers for other Icoms look like. If you're a competent
programmer, adding a new radio driver really isn't too complicated.
All the complicated stuff like GUI, import, export, etc., is already
done and works for every radio.
