David, regarding #1 and #3. My understanding is that the COM port used for radio (frequency) control must be used ONLY for radio control. You will need a second COM port to do CW keying, PTT and FSK. That port can be used for all three.
Surely someone must make a one COM Port device that does the latter. 73 - Jim AD1C On Sat, Mar 5, 2016 at 9:16 PM, David Kozinn, K2DBK <[email protected]> wrote: > After the smoke escaped from my trusty Icom 756 Pro II, I bit the bullet and > upgraded to an Icom 7600.
