Hello genepool-

I have constructed a "pre-release" update package of hamlib (for Ubuntu Karmic or Lucid) which includes the latest fixes for the Icom PCR100, PCR1000, and PCR1500 radios, as mentioned by Stephane.  Would it be possible for you to install this version of hamlib on your system and verify that it fixes the problem on your PCR1000?:

Thanks for reporting this problem, and for your help in testing the fix.

** Changed in: hamlib (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Incomplete

I tried hamlib-1.2.10 and got the same error.  I have not tried the unstable snapshot yet.
