[RTTY] Two Radio's with USB ports

[Elmar PD3EM]

Hi Jim,

I think it can depend on how many USB root hubs you have on the main board.
You can give it a try with one connected to the front and the other 
connected to the back side USB connectors.
Most of the times those will be separately connected to different 
controllers on the board.

As best I can determine they both use the same USB driver.  I have been unable to use both via their USB ports when trying to operate SO2R.  Either works fine alone in a contest.

In order to work SO2R I have to use the RS-232 port on one of the radio's with an audio interface to exchange audio between the radio and computer.  CAT and audio on the other radio works fine through it's USB port.
