feature.
Any possibility that TR Log might add this capability in the future? It
would be an efficient use of the computer's COM port resources. Then you
could use the other COM ports for networking and all that other fancy
switching stuff. >>
Thank you for another voice of support. This opens up some possibilities for
using two icom radios when S&P and swicth to transceive, when heard new
station on Rig 2. CI-V allows to transceive for two Icom rigs when connected
to CI-V interface. This is really big help when using resource deprived
notebooks.
Thank you for future soon consideration.
