[VHFcontesting] Keying IC-746 with signalink USB

[Dan_K9ZF]

Hi Terry,

It's been awhile, but it seems like on one of the acc. connectors there 
is a key line for HF and another pin for VHF.  And the other connector 
is used for the interface.    What I did was wire a jumper on the 
un-used acc. plug so the HF and VHF lines are combined.  With the 746 
you can only use one band at a time, so it has never caused me any problems.

Hope this makes sense.  If you are still having trouble, let me know and 
I will pull out the manual and give you a better description.
